The Undergraduate In The Repository: Connecting The Dots, Stephanie Davis-Kahl

Stephanie Davis-Kahl

The focus of this session will be on how the institutional repository can be used as a foundation for educating undergraduate students about issues surrounding open access, author rights and copyright, and how libraries can embed these concepts in information literacy sessions as well as in outreach efforts throughout the academic year. Several initiatives by IWU to highlight undergraduate work will be discussed.
