The session will explore considerations that went into updating the SPARC Canadian Author Addendum and Creative Commons newest addenda offerings. While the Addendum is an important tool for authors who wish to retain their rights, it is essential to contextualize this tool within the framework of options for retaining rights.Item Open Access Copyright and author rights(2018-11-23) Gillis, RogerItem Open Access “Watch Your Language!”: Word Choice in Library Website Usability(Partnership: The Canadian Journal of Library and Information Practice and Research, 2017) Gillis, RogerMany academic libraries conduct extensive user studies when redesigning their websites, considering characteristics such as design features, information architecture, and link and information placement. One of the less studied aspects impacting library website usability is choice of language. This article presents the results of a usability study conducted at a small Canadian academic library that assessed the impact of word choice on user interactions with its library website. The author provides an overview of the relevant literature and explores the role that word choice, especially on a library website’s home page, can play in user experience.Item Open Access Research bootcamp: Humanities databases(2017-05-30) Gillis, Roger
