The college of Computing and Information Science (CIS) at Cornell University
invites applications for a full time Lecturer position focused on teaching
innovation and excellence, to be hired in one of its three academic
departments-Computer Science, Information Science or Statistical Science.
Information about CIS and these departments can be found at cis.cornell.edu.
The position offers a professional career track with possibility of growth:
a three year (Lecturer) or five year (Senior
Lecturer) appointment, depending on candidate qualifications, with the
expectation of renewal.
We seek candidates to take a lead in developing innovative and effective
teaching methods for CIS faculty in partnership with university teaching
excellence programs. We expect that candidates will also teach, work with,
and advise students in one or more of our undergraduate programs. Candidates
for the position should hold a PhD and have demonstrated excellence in
teaching CIS related undergraduate courses. Candidates holding a Masters who
have shown exceptional teaching ability will also be considered.
CIS has as its foundation an outward-looking inter-disciplinary approach to
computing and information, from a faculty that is grounded in core
excellence within academic disciplines in its three departments. Computer
Science brings together faculty, students and researchers in a broad range
of interests including AI/machine learning, data science, graphics, human
interaction cyber-security, scientific computing, systems/networks and
theory. Information Science advances understanding of how people and society
interact with computing and information. Statistical Science research and
teaching includes statistical theory, statistical computing, data science or
general methodology.
Evaluation of applicants will begin December 1, 2017. To ensure full
consideration, applications should be received by January 1, 2018, but will

Apologies for cross-posting but we don't want anyone to miss out on our last
virtual workshop for 2017.
Incorporating digital research objects (DROs) as a key component of the
scholarly record requires a challenging framework and shared
responsibilities among all stakeholders. Join us on December 12 to hear
about Digital Research Objects (DROs) the latest changes in scholarly
publishing.
What Will Our Presenters Cover?
How research objects are enriching scientific scholarship, and how they can
be incorporated as part of the scholarly record.
The impact of digital research objects on citation, and how metadata fields
can be added to include discoverable research objects that are tied to the
scholarly record.
How librarians, publishers, and technology solutions can facilitate change,
and the needed requirements.
To review the entire agenda and presenters for Incorporating Research
Objects in Scholarship: Greater Discoverability, Access and Use and to

LyR5M&e=> at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign has named
Associate Professor Catherine Blake the Centennial Scholar for 2017-2018.
The award is endowed by alumni and friends of the School and given in
recognition of outstanding accomplishments and/or professional promise in
information sciences.
A leading researcher in text mining medical literature, Blake has returned
from a year as a faculty fellow at the Lister Hill National Center for
Biomedical Communications, a research and development unit of the National
Library of Medicine at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). There she
worked on projects in semantic knowledge representation and medical ontology
research.
Blake's earlier focus on how people synthesize evidence from literature
directly informs her computational approaches to accelerate scientific
discovery. She utilizes her industrial experience as a software developer,
formal training in information and computer science, and more than a decade
of experience in text mining scientific articles in medicine, toxicology,
and epidemiology. Her work has been published in the Journal of the
Association for Information Science and Technology, the Journal of
Biomedical Informatics, Environmental Health Perspectives, and elsewhere.
She has also published three book chapters.
Blake is co-principal investigator on a project funded by the National
Science Foundation that uses next-generation risk assessment tools to
explore how the culture of an organization affects the likelihood of a
disaster. She recently completed a project that analyzed data reuse at the
U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
"I am deeply grateful to receive this award, and the timing rounds out a
wonderful year while I was on sabbatical at NIH. I am very much looking
forward to integrating that experience back into the iSchool and the
information science research community," said Blake, who also holds
affiliate appointments in the Departments of Computer Science and Medical
Information Science at Illinois.
"We are delighted to recognize Cathy's work with the Centennial Scholar
award," said Dean Allen Renear. "She has been pioneering new approaches to
better integrate and advance our understanding of medical research results.
This is enormously important work, and we are excited about both the results
so far and the prospects ahead. We are also, of course, very pleased to have
her back with us!"
At the iSchool, Blake serves as associate director of the Center for
Informatics Research in Science and Scholarship, which studies the
information lifecycle in the contexts of science and scholarship. She
teaches text mining, an introductory course on databases, evidence-based
discovery, and foundations of socio-technical data analytics. She also
designed the School's graduate specialization in Socio-technical Data
Analytics (SODA), which was funded by a grant from the Institute of Museum
and Library Services and formed the basis of the data analytics track in the
new MS in information management.
Prior to joining the iSchool in 2009, Blake was an assistant professor in
the School of Information and Library Science at the University of North
Carolina, Chapel Hill. She holds an MS and PhD in information and computer
science from the University of California, Irvine, and a BS and MS in
computer science from the University of Wollongong, Australia.

LEADS-4-NDP will provide stipends for 18 library and information science
doctoral students across the country who will complete an online preparatory
curriculum, an intensive three-day data science boot camp at Drexel
University, and a ten-week immersive data science research experience. The
participants will work with our LEADS project partners, including
Biodiversity Heritage Library (BHL), Smithsonian, California Digital Library
(CDL), Digital Curation Innovation Center (DCIC), University of Maryland,
Digital Public Library of America (DPLA), Historical Society of Pennsylvania
(HSP), Online Computer Library Center (OCLC), Philadelphia Free Public
Library, and University of Pennsylvania Libraries. A team of mentors and
internationally recognized data and library science experts will also help
guide the LEADS-4-NDP initiative.
?Increasingly, we see LIS graduates with data science skills seeking
employment in the tech industry. Although attractive salaries are part of
the draw, LIS graduates with data skills may not pursue libraries simply
because they lack exposure to the value proposition of data science in the
library domain,? Greenberg explained. ?We need to provide infrastructure
along with education, so future faculty and graduates alike can see the
application of predictive analytics and other data science methods for
services and operations in libraries, museums, and other aspects of the
National Digital Platform,? she said.
?The LEADS-4-NDP program will address this need, and allow Drexel University
to share our expertise in data science with LIS programs by teaching future
faculty, and making lesson plans and other resources open and accessible
beyond the immediate LEADS program,? added Lin.
This program will differ from other data science initiatives in that it aims
to teach students to apply data science methods, frameworks, processes, and
tools to the NDP. The goal is to prepare the next generation of LIS faculty
so that they may bring data science knowledge and skills, in a meaningful
way, into LIS education. LEADS-4-NDP will develop a template for educating
library data scientists, while also readying this first cohort to serve as
educators and leaders in libraries and archives.
