I should probably do a proper masto #introduction

I'm Vicky. I'm a librarian focusing on research reproducibility + research data management.
I gave an interview about me/my work recently: http://acrl.ala.org/dh/2018/04/04/repro/

I love FOSS, open access, open educational resources, open EVERYTHING

I hate the corporate capture of scholarship

I co-founded an open source, open access repo for LIS scholarship: lissarchive.org

I also love my super cute black cat Little Boss & my partner @remram44

hey y'all #LIS folks on here -

At the end of this year, the LIS Scholarship Archive will be migrating off the Center for Open Science's technical infrastructure. Materials will be accessible during this transition.

We provide context on this decision & ask for community input on next steps in this blog post: https://lissarchive.org/updates/lissa-cos/

Ok I am having the hardest time installing Plasma Mobile on the Manjaro Pinephone :(

does anyone have a basic tutorial out there that they liked?

0 focus today /sigh

> a novel web-based inventory methodology approach which we hope will provide inspiration for similar research.

COME ON I literally make my students do environmental scans, 100% of which are web-based

I wish the people in power at my library didn't give af about these people but here I am having to explain methods

the Ithaka S+R report on research data services claims they use a new type of methodology (they have a whole section in their report about how new it is!) but then in their report they say only this about their methods:

> a systematic web searching process

Which is extremely not new. Even if they quantitatively ranked results, that is still not new

"The Cheat Theme Song" just came on shuffle

like from Homestar

😆

I helped out the undergrad data science club for their first ever "datathon" and there are a bunch of messages in the slack calling me the GOAT

it is so awesome to be appreciated by one's designated user community isn't it

me getting down to work after an all-nighter:

Taught a new version of a git workshop today and I feel bad about how it went
