Honors College Participation Program, Cassandra Davis

Honors Projects

The Honors College Participation Program is a program that was implemented within the Bowling Green State University Honors College.

In the study, responses of 628 first-year students to a survey which asked them about their attitudes toward and experiences with academic …

Discovery & Born-Digital Archiving: Open Source Systems For Preservation And Access, L. Bryan Cooper, Margarita Perez-Martinez

Works of the FIU Libraries

The reasons for the development of the portal continue to exist, as originally perceived four years ago. Adaptations to ongoing change and system testing continues, and the use of Archive-It has broad institutional potential beyond EE. Cross-walking skills continue to grown, and will benefit future syndication and discovery system integration. The metadata normalization and harmonization will help save time for the end-user.
