In Spring 2013, students in the Literary Editing and Publishing (English 380) class at Valparaiso University (Valpo) were asked to create a proposal for a literary review for which they would be the editorial board. This presentation will discuss the class assignment’s design, which the English faculty member and librarian co-authored, plus the various publishing concerns and problems that the class raised, what changes we might make in the future, as well as ask broader questions about how making the undergraduate student a publisher could drastically reframe scholarly communication instruction.

Jump-Starting Your Journal: Exploding Content Access Via Repository Publishing, Todd Bruns, Stacey Knight-Davis

Digital Commons Great Lakes User Group Annual Meeting

Since 2009 Eastern Illinois University (EIU) has hosted the Journal of Collective Bargaining in the Academy (JCBA), the annual journal of the National Center for the Study of Collective Bargaining in Higher Education and the Professions. The journal compiles the best research, op-eds, and practitioner perspectives on the subject of collective bargaining in higher education, a particularly important subject in the past half-decade of economic constriction, salary stagnation, and pension pressures. This presentation will demonstrate that institutional repository open access does dramatically improve discoverability by comparing logs from the locally hosted platform to usage statistics from Digital Commons. Differences in …


Library And University Press As Journal Publishing Partners - Wayne State University Press And Libraries, Joshua Neds-Fox Aug 2013

Library And University Press As Journal Publishing Partners - Wayne State University Press And Libraries, Joshua Neds-Fox

Digital Commons Great Lakes User Group Annual Meeting

The Wayne State University Press Journals program comprises ten scholarly print serials. When the Press sought to deliver its journals electronically, in-house, for the first time, it established a mutually beneficial collaboration with the Libraries to host, format, manage and preserve its content online. We propose a case study of this collaboration, documenting the program, the process, and the unique features of this partnership. Neds-Fox will discuss the collaboration, the unexpected benefits for both partners not directly related to the publishing of the journals, and the future directions for the partnership.

Platform Jumping: Migration Collection From Dspace To Digital Commons, Jane Wildermuth, Andrew Harris

Digital Commons Great Lakes User Group Annual Meeting

Wright State’s Institutional Repository with Digital Commons, CORE Scholar, has been active for approximately a year and a half now. In addition to our Digital Commons platform, we have also maintained a DSpace-based repository since 2008. Earlier this year, due to a lack of support for our DSpace platform, CORE, we began to look for a new service to host our content. We have encountered many issues that needed to be resolved during the process of planning and executing our migration from DSpace to Digital Commons. In our presentation we plan to discuss our workflow for migrating diverse collections from …

Automating Your Way To Easy Faculty Scholarship Collection Development, Margaret Heller

Digital Commons Great Lakes User Group Annual Meeting

Involving faculty liaisons in a collaborative collection development process is a time‐consuming but worthwhile effort to increase library staff and faculty buy‐in in the repository. Involvement levels can be improved when staff workflows are refined and streamlined as part of an overall plan. This presentation will describe the development of a new set of procedures to automate the majority of the collection development effort using the SHERPA/RoMEO API and OpenRefine, leaving liaisons to focus on the personal outreach portions of the process. The presentation will include an overview of the literature as well as step by step descriptions of the …
