Jun: Creating Successful Scholarly Communication with an Institutional Repository (ALCTS)

Three-part series
Registration: http://www.ala.org/alcts/events/ac/2014/vc_irs

Session 1. Just Say Yes: The Opportunistic Institutional Repository
Tuesday, June 10: 11 a.m. Pacific  |  12 p.m. Mountain  |  1 p.m. Central  |  2 p.m. Eastern
Highlights how OSU Libraries and others are inserting the IR into numerous research and scholarship activities and, eventually, garnering support from a wide variety of stakeholders across campus.

Session 2. Creating Scholar Commons: A Case Study in Publishing Repository Success
Wednesday, June 11: 11 a.m. Pacific  |  12 p.m. Mountain  |  1 p.m. Central  |  2 p.m. Eastern
Scholar Commons, a service of the University of South Florida Tampa Library, has become a virtual showcase and publishing venue for USF's research and creative energies. But this is not how it all started. Through our case study, we will show the growth and development of Scholar Commons as it went from a simple journal host to a full-fledged publishing repository, providing opportunities across campus for successfully publishing books, textbooks, conferences, datasets, and open-access journals.

Session 3. Engaging Faculty in Your Scholarly Communication Program: SHERPA/RoMEO and Web of Science to the Rescue
Thursday, June 12: 11 a.m. Pacific  |  12 p.m. Mountain  |  1 p.m. Central  |  2 p.m. Eastern
A basic overview of the SHERPA/RoMEO database and give attendees an opportunity for guided practice in determining publisher self-archiving policies on their own. We’ll describe how we’ve incorporated SHERPA/RoMEO into our scholarly communication program to engage successfully with faculty and provide participants with our templates and documents, which they can adapt for their own circumstances.
