Apologies for cross posting.
We wanted to alert you to the new pilot, Jisc Monitor, a one-year project which started in May 2014, to explore how a Jisc managed shared service might support institutions in meeting HEFCE policy. The project will scope and build proof of concept prototypes to respond to specific use cases. Prototypes will be used to assess the feasibility of developing a service, to scope that service if there is a clearly articulated need for one and to identify priorities for the service. The rationale for this new project is a direct consequence of the Jisc APC pilot project with the research outputs of Jisc APC influencing Jisc Monitor. The pilot is managed by Jisc Collections and developed by Mimas, utilising the skills and expertise of project partners Sero Consulting, Cottage Labs and Knowledge Integration.
For more information, please click on the links below to read our official description on the Jisc Collections' website, as well as our blog, where you can learn more about what we're doing, as well as take the opportunity to get involved with some of the testing of the use-cases:
