NOTES: Given as part of the Digital Literacies conference at the University of Southampton, 14th June 2012. Event details here: http://www.diglit.soton.ac.uk/conference/programme/presentations/ This presentation outlines themes that I would like to explore as part of a workshop on the 4th July 2012. The idea of the workshop is to spend an afternoon recording interviews with researchers about their uses of social media, and to brainstorm a variety of themes, creating resources on a wiki for use throughout (and outside of) the University. Open to all interested parties. Workshop details, and free tickets, here: http://www.diglit.soton.ac.uk/events/social-media-for-researchers/

First theme for consideration: the definition of social media. Its more than just using twitter and having a blog. Considering things like reach, decentralised nature, immediacy, permanence, etc.

Second theme: exploring private and public spaces. i.e. Institutional level social media, personal social media, worldwide social media. Considering also differing options for disclosure.

Theme 3: Personal brand management Little joke here: Ji Lee’s Google Me business cards. But also brand management for your research project, your department, your discipline, your institution, etc.

Theme 4: The wheel of research Knowledge identification, creation, affirmation, dissemination. Social media can contribute at ALL points of the lifecycle of research. Its not just restricted to dissemination.

Theme 5: Management of research. Using social bookmarking, citation, project management, etc.

Theme 6: Conversations! Specialised support networks. Corridor/coffee break conversations. Managing different groups. Bringing past and present contacts/networks together. Maintaining connections, re-connecting. Crowdsourcing.

Theme 7: Reusing research. Storage, archiving, sharing. How to recycle data, and resource discovery. Publishing negative data that someone else might use.

Theme 9: New forms of publishing. Being involved in all forms of publishing. Including quick dissemination such as Paper.li, micro-blogging, blogging, aggregating, curating. Also publishing negative data for use by someone else. E.g. Figshare giving DOI to all data.

Issues to consider: IP and copyright.

Consideration: Social media can contribute to filtering information and managing time, rather than being the thing that causes these problems.

The workshop on the 4th July, ‘Managing your online social media profile as a researcher’, is advertised on the Digital Literacies website, and I will add more information about it on my own blog (http://theculturalheritageweb.wordpress.com/) over the next couple of weeks. Please do join the event if you can come along.
