The Investigating and Archiving the Scholarly Git Experience (IASGE) project is multi-track study focused on understanding the uses of Git by students, faculty, and staff working in academic research institutions as well as the ways source code repositories and their associated contextual ephemera can be better preserved. This research, in turn, has implications regarding how to support Git in the scholarly process, how version control systems contribute to reproducibility, and how Library and Information Science (LIS) professionals can support Git through instruction and sustainability efforts. In this paper, we focus on a subset of our larger project and take a deep look at what code hosting platforms offer researchers in terms of productivity and collaboration. For this portion, a survey, focus groups, and user experience interviews were conducted to gain an understanding of how and why scholarly researchers use Version Control Systems (VCS) as well as some of the pain points in learning and using VCS for daily work.

Reproducibility, preservation, and access to research with ReproZip and ReproServer.
IASSIST Quarterly, 44(1-2):1–11, June 2020.

The adoption of reproducibility remains low, despite incentives becoming increasingly common in different domains, conferences, and journals. The truth is, reproducibility is technically difficult to achieve due to the complexities of computational environments. To address these technical challenges, we created ReproZip, an open-source tool that automatically packs research along with all the necessary information to reproduce it, including data files, software, OS version, and environment variables. Everything is then bundled into an rpz file, which users can use to reproduce the work with ReproZip and a suitable unpacker (e.g.: using Vagrant or Docker). The rpz file is general and contains rich metadata: more unpackers can be added as needed, better guaranteeing long-term preservation. However, installing the unpackers can still be burdensome for secondary users of ReproZip bundles. In this paper, we will discuss how ReproZip and our new tool, ReproServer, can be used together to facilitate access to well-preserved, reproducible work. ReproServer is a web application that allows users to upload or provide a link to a ReproZip bundle, and then interact with/reproduce the contents from the comfort of their browser. Users are then provided a persistent link to the unpacked work on ReproServer which they can share with reviewers or colleagues.

What’s Wrong with Digital Stewardship: Evaluating the Organization of Digital Preservation Programs from Practitioners’ Perspectives.
Journal of Contemporary Archival Studies, August 2020.

[abstract▼] [full text]

The National Digital Stewardship Alliance surveyed practitioners in 2012 and again in 2017 to gauge, among other things, how satisfied they were with their organizations’ digital preservation function. This study seeks to understand what causes the high and rising levels of dissatisfaction that practitioners reported. We interviewed 21 digital stewards and asked them to describe the organizational context in which they work; to reflect on what aspects of their organizations’ approach to digital preservation are working well and which are not; and to evaluate necessary areas of improvement. We identified experiences that were common among participants using a qualitative research methodology based on phenomenology. These conversations revealed that practitioners largely consider digital stewardship values and goals to be misunderstood at an organizational level, and demonstrated that the absence of a long-term vision for digital stewardship disempowers practitioners.

Research Data Management Among Life Sciences Faculty: Implications for Library Service.

[BibTeX▼]
Objective: This paper aims to inform on opportunities for librarians to assist faculty with research data management by examining practices and attitudes among life sciences faculty at a tier one research university. Methods: The authors issued a survey to estimate actual and perceived research data management needs of New York University (NYU) life sciences faculty in order to understand how the library could best contribute to the research life cycle. Results: Survey responses indicate that over half of the respondents were aware of publisher and funder mandates, and most are willing to share their data, but many indicated they do not utilize data repositories. Respondents were largely unaware of data services available through the library, but the majority were open to considering such services. Survey results largely mimic those of similar studies, in that storing data (and the subsequent ability to share it) is the most easily recognized barrier to sound data management practices. Conclusions: At NYU, as with other institutions, the library is not immediately recognized as a valuable partner in managing research output. This study suggests that faculty are largely unaware of, but are open to, existent library services, indicating that immediate outreach efforts should be aimed at promoting them.

While dynamic and interactive Web applications are becoming increasingly common to convey news and stories to people all around the world, their technological complexity makes it hard to archive and preserve such applications, and as such, they are being lost. We present ReproZip-Web, an open-source prototype aimed at saving these news applications from extinction. ReproZip-Web leverages ReproZip, a computational reproducibility tool, and Webrecorder, a tool for recording Web resources, to automatically and transparently capture and replay dynamic Websites. The prototype creates a bundle that contains all the information needed to reproduce a news application, and its lightweight nature makes it ideal for distribution and preservation. We will present our ongoing work on the prototype, and also discuss some use cases and avenues for future development.

Using ReproZip for Reproducibility and Library Services.

Achieving research reproducibility is challenging in many ways: there are social and cultural obstacles as well as a constantly changing technical landscape that makes replicating and reproducing research difficult. Users face challenges in reproducing research across different operating systems, in using different versions of software across long projects and among collaborations, and in using publicly available work. The dependencies required to reproduce the computational environments in which research happens can be exceptionally hard to track – in many cases, these dependencies are hidden or nested too deeply to discover, and thus impossible to install on a new machine, which means adoption remains low. In this paper, we present ReproZip , an open source tool to help overcome the technical difficulties involved in preserving and replicating research, applications, databases, software, and more. We will examine the current use cases of ReproZip , ranging from digital humanities to machine learning. We also explore potential library use cases for ReproZip, particularly in digital libraries and archives, liaison librarianship, and other library services. We believe that libraries and archives can leverage ReproZip to deliver more robust reproducibility services, repository services, as well as enhanced discoverability and preservation of research materials, applications, software, and computational environments.

ReproServer: Making Reproducibility Easier and Less Intensive.
arXiv:1808.01406 [cs], August 2018.

[abstract▼] [full text]
[BibTeX▼]
Reproducibility in the computational sciences has been stymied because of the complex and rapidly changing computational environments in which modern research takes place. While many will espouse reproducibility as a value, the challenge of making it happen (both for themselves and testing the reproducibility of others' work) often outweigh the benefits. There have been a few reproducibility solutions designed and implemented by the community. In particular, the authors are contributors to ReproZip, a tool to enable computational reproducibility by tracing and bundling together research in the environment in which it takes place (e.g. one's computer or server). In this white paper, we introduce a tool for unpacking ReproZip bundles in the cloud, ReproServer. ReproServer takes an uploaded ReproZip bundle (.rpz file) or a link to a ReproZip bundle, and users can then unpack them in the cloud via their browser, allowing them to reproduce colleagues' work without having to install anything locally. This will help lower the barrier to reproducing others' work, which will aid reviewers in verifying the claims made in papers and reusing previously published research.

[abstract▼] [full text]
[BibTeX▼]
Over the past few years, research reproducibility has been increasingly highlighted as a multifaceted challenge across many disciplines. There are socio-cultural obstacles as well as a constantly changing technical landscape that make replicating and reproducing research extremely difficult. Researchers face challenges in reproducing research across different operating systems and different versions of software, to name just a few of the many technical barriers. The prioritization of citation counts and journal prestige has undermined incentives to make research reproducible. While libraries have been building support around research data management and digital scholarship, reproducibility is an emerging area that has yet to be systematically addressed. To respond to this, New York University (NYU) created the position of Librarian for Research Data Management and Reproducibility (RDM & R), a dual appointment between the Center for Data Science (CDS) and the Division of Libraries. This report will outline the role of the RDM & R librarian, paying close attention to the collaboration between the CDS and Libraries to bring reproducible research practices into the norm.

Abstract In Wolke et al. [1] we compare the efficiency of different resource allocation strategies experimentally. We focused on dynamic environments where virtual machines need to be allocated and deallocated to servers over time. In this companion paper, we describe the simulation framework and how to run simulations to replicate experiments or run new experiments within the framework.

What makes a digital steward: A competency profile based on the National Digital Stewardship Residencies.
In iPres 2016. LIS Scholarship Archive, October 2016.

Digital stewardship is a rapidly maturing field within library and information science. This domain engages in the active and long-term management of digital objects towards their preservation for and unencumbered access by future generations. Although this field is growing quickly, it lacks a compentancy profile for practioners that is commonplace in LIS (example: the American Library Association's Core Compentencies of Librarianship). This study sought to fill that gap by creating a profile of the skills, responsibilities, and knowledge areas that define competency in digital stewardship, based on three key datasets: 1) literature in the field through a literature review (to define the scope of the profile), 2) NDSR project descriptions, qualitatively analyzed to get a baseline understanding of expected competencies 3) the results of a survey given to current and past NDSR residents, quantitively evaluated to illustrate competencies’ importance to professional success.

Collaborative Software Archiving for Institutions (CoSAI).

CNI Fall Member Meeting.

[abstract▼] [Video]
[BibTeX▼]
Increasingly, scholarly artifacts created throughout the research lifecycle such as source code, datasets, audio/visual recordings, technical reports, presentation slides, and blog posts are considered necessary components of the scholarly record. Our previous research confirmed this claim and revealed the widespread use of version control systems among academic researchers writing source code. However, we also noticed a lack of comprehensive institutional programs to preserve their scholars' source code. In addition, there are very few technical systems and tools available for the high-quality capture of source code artifacts at scale. In response to this observation, and with generous support from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, we started the "Collaborative Software Archiving for Institutions (CoSAI)" project as a collaboration between New York University, Los Alamos National Laboratory, the University of Pittsburgh, and Old Dominion University. The CoSAI project focuses on developing and evaluating institutional approaches to archive research software hosted on public code sharing platforms on the web. This includes the creation (and sharing) of institutional collection policy plans as well as the technical development of systems that do not just crawl the code hosted on sites like GitHub, but also reliably capture the ephemeral record of supplementary material related to the code, for example, discussion threads and issues. We consider these materials just as important as the code itself, specifically for the purpose of reproducibility and replicability. By leveraging existing open source tools like Memento Tracer and building on workflow engines such as OCCAM, CoSAI will contribute to capturing web resources from code repositories at high quality, at scale, and in a reproducible manner. The briefing will include a project plan outline and report on progress to date.

We will present original research about the behaviors and motivations of scholars who code, specifically how they interact with version control systems locally and on the Web. By understanding patrons through multiple lenses—daily productivity habits, motivations, and scholarly needs—library workers can tailor services for software management, curation, and long-term reuse, raising the possibility for long-term reproducibility of a multitude of scholarship. This was done as a part of the Investigating & Archiving the Scholarly Git Experience (IASGE) project.

Dynamic web archiving: difficult, but important!

Katy and Vicky will be talking about "Preserving the Dynamic Web," an IMLS-funded project to build a software tool that can capture and preserve dynamic websites at scale. Many complex websites, like the COVID maps created by newsrooms or DH projects, cannot be saved by current web archiving tools like the ones used at the Internet Archive. Consequently, a lot of these sites are just disappearing. This is not good! They'll discuss why this is happening, what kind of content is being lost, and what librarians and digital archivists can do about it.

In the spring of 2021, the Practices WG of the ACM’s EIG on Reproducibility and Replicability held a series of community conversations about topics related to the reproducibility of computational research. Five such meeting were held, each focusing on reproducibility through the lens of a particular topic: Principles, Solutions, Training, Publishing, and Preservation. The virtual discussions, which garnered solid interest from a broad range of stakeholders, was captured via the blog, "Taking the Pulse." This keynote will expand on the "Taking the Pulse" series and summarize the main insights from the community. The talk will also reflect on future needs around reproducibility, which will be of interest to P-RECS, the ACM, and the scientific community at large.

Public demand for scholarly research skyrocketed in 2020, as people sought reliable and readily available information on COVID-19. Much of this need was met by preprints, scholarly papers that are released publicly prior to peer review and publication in a scholarly journal. Many major preprint services have been bought by large corporations and are no longer run by members of the scholarly community. In response to this trend, our speakers describe what it means to run a community-owned repository for preprints.

Open science - open data.
September 2021.
Panel for eScience 2021.
URL: https://escience2021.org/panel.
[abstract▼] [Program]
[BibTeX▼]
Openness is a fundamental principle in science and scholarship. For many centuries, scientific results have been widely disseminated through publications, conferences and meetings so that they can be validated and used for new scientific results. Many scientific results depend on the analysis and interpretation of data and this trend is increasing today, with the ability to use computers to analyze huge amounts of data, new techniques like machine learning that allows new forms of analysis, and increasing amounts of data produced through experiments, simulations, and data collections. Clearly, to validate results and build new ones, the data used needs to be available to others in a meaningful fashion. To achieve this, the FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable) guiding principles for scientific data management and stewardship have emerged in recentf years. In addition to data being important, the scientific methods used to generate, organize, and analyze the data are nowadays often encoded in large, complex software packages. It is therefore often necessary not only to have access to data but also software and the FAIR principles should probably apply to software, too, though perhaps with some changes that reflect that software is different than data. How to best achieve open research, including FAIRness in data (and software), is a big topic in the scientific community and in addition, questions of reproducibility, ownership, protection of IP, and scientific attribution are complicating the discussion. In this panel we will address these and other questions around Open Science with a world-leading panel.

Qualitative research has long suffered from a lack of free tools for analysis, leaving no options for researchers without significant funds for software licenses. This presents significant challenges for equity. This panel discussion will explore the first two free/libre open source qualitative analysis tools out there: qcoder (R package) and Taguette (desktop application). Drawing from the diverse backgrounds of the presenters (social science, library \& information science, software engineering), we will discuss what openness and extensibility means for qualitative research, and how the two tools we've built facilitate equitable, open sharing.

The New Normal: Why Libraries are Teaching AI, ML, DH, NLP, VR….

Search cutting-edge academic libraries’ homegrown services and you will find artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), digital humanities (DH), natural language processing (NLP), and virtual reality (VR) experts, workshops, consultations, and interdisciplinary projects. Why is that? While on the surface this segment of information and research services may be considered beyond the accustomed library role, the growing popularity of these offerings, at a time when traditional library services are on the wane, suggests that they are fast becoming the new normal. By connecting and fostering collaboration across the disciplines, these libraries are enhancing the teaching, learning and research experience and helping reassert the library’s key role as the center of scholarship. In this panel, data-centric librarians and scientists explore the origins of this trend and possible future directions.

Reproducibility is a core component of the scientific process: it helps researchers all around the world to verify research results and also to build on them, allowing science to move forward. Unfortunately, computational reproducibility can be very painful. We’ll present an open source tool for computational reproducibility, ReproZip. ReproZip is written in Python, and was designed to simplify the process of making an experiment reproducible across platforms. ReproZip creates self-contained, reproducible packages by automatically tracking, identifying, and capturing all its required dependencies: programs, libraries, data, and configuration files. The original user can share the package with others, who can then use ReproZip to unpack and rerun the experiment on their favorite operating system.
