Digital Commons Collaboratory Now Includes Annual Reports

We’re now collecting annual reports about institutional repository and scholarly communication initiatives at Digital Commons libraries. Iowa State University’s Harrison W. Inefuku suggested that the Collaboratory would be a great place to aggregate these, and we couldn’t agree more!

We’ve also added a number of other useful resources from Digital Commons administrators:

• April Younglove of Rochester Institute of Technology submitted this great poster promoting their Scholar Works repository.
• Ashley D. Lowrey of Georgia Southern University submitted two SelectedWorks-related items: a promotional brochure and an instructional handout for faculty.
• The ETD_CON Utility, created by Logan E. Jewett at Iowa State University, is a java applet for processing ETD records for batch upload.
• This poster explains the distributed staffing model for Digital Commons @Brockport. It was created by Kim Myers and Kenneth Wierzbowski for the 2013 Digital Commons Great Lakes Users Group Meeting.

Thank you to everyone that’s submitted content to the Collaboratory. Please email Outreach at outreach@bepress.com if you have anything you would like to share with the Digital Commons community.
