Colleagues/
I have been invited to give an invited keynote at the University of
Limerick, Ireland, in early June 2009 at a symposium focused on 'New
Paradigms in Scholarly Research'.
I have chosen to address this theme with a presentation titled
Research and Scholarship In The 21st Century:
The Paradigms They Are A'Changin > Open / Semantic / Social / Mobile
I plan to focus on the four broad themes of 1) Open, 2) Semantic, 3)
Social, and 4) Mobile.
Under each I plan to profile significant developments that relate to
each, namely
__Open__
Open Access / Open Science / Open Source / Open standards / Etc.
__Semantic__
Valued Added Content and Functionality Within Journals / Monographs /
Other Publications
For Examples See My
"E Is for Everything: The Extra-Ordinary, Evolutionary [E-]Journal." The
Serials Librarian 41, no. 3/4 (2002): 293-321.[

I would be most grateful to learn of particular/specific examples within
each subtopic (within a research/scholarly environment) that you believe
is specifically/particularly noteworthy to profile in my presentation.

Thanks A Million !
BTW: If There Are Any Colleagues In Ireland That Would Be Interested In
Hosting/Sponsoring A Version of The Presentation, Please Do Contact Me
([log in to unmask]). In Addition To My Presentation At Limerick (June
9), I Plan To Visit Dublin (June 3-5) And Galway (June 6-7).
If A Formal Presentation Is Not Possible, I'd Loved To Discuss The
Issues With You Over A Pint Or Two ... [:-)]
