Data Quality Checks: Implementation With Popular Data Collection Crowdsourcing Platforms, James Down, Gregory Balkcom, Kristine Duncan, Ngan (An) Truong, Andrew Lewis

Symposium of Student Scholars

The utilization of online crowdsourcing platforms for data collection has increased over the past two decades in the field of public health due to the ease of use, the cost-saving benefits, the speed of the data collection process, and the accessibility of a potentially true representative population. Although these platforms offer many advantages to researchers, significant drawbacks exist, such as poor data quality, that threaten the reliability and validity of the study. Previous studies have examined data quality concerns, but differences in results arise due to variations in study designs, disciplinary contexts, and the platforms being investigated. Therefore, this study …

Spatial Associations Of Liver Disease Rates With Socioeconomic And Health Risk Factors In Georgia, Nguyet Le

Symposium of Student Scholars

According to the CDC Cancer Statistics Report in 2020, Liver and Intrahepatic Bile Duct is the 6th leading cancer in both USA and the State of Georgia ranked by Rates of Cancer Death. Aflatoxin-containing foods, alcohol consumption, smoking, overeating, and other risky behaviors are among the factors linked to liver diseases. They have also been related to the socioeconomic status (SES) of individuals. The behaviors and SES of individuals are affected by the socioeconomic characteristics of the communities where they live. However, the relationships between the rates of liver diseases and community-level socioeconomic factors are not well studied. The objective …

Average Household Income In Relation To Individual Dietary Consumption Of Fruits And Vegetables, Liz Burchfield, Bella Spencer

Several variables were utilized which include average collective income for households, perceptions of fruit and vegetable prices and quality, self-reporting items about perceived fruit and vegetable consumption, and financial survey responses. With these chosen variables we made initial inferences that there would be a relationship between income and fruit consumption. We predict that throughout the duration …

Advancing Research Visibility Through Collections: A Case Study From Nursing, Travis Nace

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

Temple University Libraries' scholarly repository, TUScholarShare, began in 2020 and is a relatively young scholarly repository with growth potential in many subject areas. Travis Nace, the nursing liaison librarian, noticed an area for potential growth: nursing-produced posters were noticeably absent from the repository. No specific community or sub-community (collections) were focused on nursing research and scholarly publications despite much being produced at Temple University.

In the spring of 2022 discussion began to create a nursing specific community. Talks were scheduled with Temple University Hospital nurse educators to obtain posters presented between 2015 and 2020. These were seen as a good …

Finding The Golden Mean: An Efficient Model For Improving Discovery And Access For Legacy Theses And Dissertations In A Medical Library’S Institutional Repository, Brandon Pieczko

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

Developing an efficient and cost-effective method for providing access to legacy print theses and dissertations is a challenge faced by many libraries that serve medical schools and other academic health science programs. The significant staff time and financial cost associated with systematically digitizing and providing complete online access to print theses and dissertations can be problematic given the potentially limited return on that investment as reflected in patron use statistics and other metrics. This presentation will describe how a medical school library improved the discoverability and accessibility of its legacy print theses and dissertations by implementing a cost-effective, selective digitization …

Care Data Principles Data Curation Primer, Katie Pierce Farrier, Sarah Barsness, Maria Victoria Fernandez, Alex Wieker, Ann Myatt James

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

The CARE data principles (Collective benefit, Authority to control, Responsibility, and Ethics) are a conceptual framework meant to ensure ethical collection, sharing, and stewardship of Indigenous data. As part of a workshop hosted by the Data Curation Network in 2022, librarians created a foundational data curation primer on the CARE data principles and how they apply to data management, curation, and sharing. The primer touches on the cultural context regarding the CARE data principles, the historical misuse of Indigenous data, tribal sovereignty, and Indigenous Peoples' right to governance of their data.

Knowledge Syntheses Search Strategy Repositories: Canadian Case Studies, Heather Cunningham, Sabine Calleja, Julia Martyniuk, Daniela Ziegler, Alix Pincivy, Jill Boruff, Alisa Rod

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

Knowledge synthesis research is central to evidence-based medicine. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses literature search extension (PRISMA-S) outlines full reporting of the search strategy component including uploading documentation of all search strategies into a data repository to increase accessibility, transparency, and reproducibility. In response to the PRISMA-S recommendations, Canadian universities and health care institutions have been increasingly offering local services for librarians to support depositing and sharing search strategies in a digital data repository on the Borealis platform. Borealis, the Canadian Dataverse Repository, is a bilingual, multidisciplinary, secure, Canadian research data repository which supports open discovery, …

Getting Creative: Implementing "Fan Favorite" Voting In Digital Commons Event, Jennifer Deal, Elizabeth Suelzer

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

Problem/Scenario: The coordinators of our institution's 2023 Scientific Day event wanted to allow attendees to cast votes for a new Fan Favorite poster award and they asked library staff for help in making this possible. Library staff maintain the institutional repository (IR) for our large health care system, and posters from Scientific Day are deposited in the IR so they are visible to judges and attendees during the virtual event. Our Digital Commons IR did not have a built-in voting system, so library staff used Springshare's LibWizard and our HTML and design skills to add "Like" buttons to conference posters …

Nlm Scrubber To De-Identify Clinical Text Data And Facilitate Data Sharing, Christine Nieman Hislop, Katie Pierce-Farrier

Pure-Ly For Authors: An Update Of A Health System Researcher Profile Platform, Heather J. Martin, Amanda Schwartz

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

In 2023, a large healthcare system transitioned their institutional repository's author profile service to an upgraded and more comprehensive platform, and in doing so re-energized author and leadership buy-in.

After Digital Commons'™ Expert Gallery Suite eliminated some functionality, institutional repository (IR) staff began the process of exploring other author profile platforms that would align with essential workflows. Elsevier's™ Pure rose to the top of compatible and robust platforms suitable to replace our previous solution.

Pure's™ automated importing and database-integration was a primary draw, but IR staff had to find creative ways to utilize the administrative features that didn't integrate with …
