Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

This presentation examines the process of building a conference collection on Digital Commons with a discussion on stakeholder collaboration, collection architecture, and promotion, and reciprocal benefit to both scholars and repository managers.

Conference collections enhance attendees' experiences by creating a live archive of conference materials, viewable both during and after the event. Collections provide meaningful metrics for interactions with conference materials, which exist as grey literature that may otherwise go unseen by wider audiences. Building conference collections vary in time and complexity, based on stakeholder needs and overall vision for the conference and its attendees. Creating conference collections that are …

From Digital Commons To Alma/Primo: Expanding Readership For Doctor Of Nursing Practice Projects, Sara Hoover

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

In 2017 the Himmelfarb Health Sciences Library partnered with The George Washington University School of Nursing to create a permanent digital archive for their Doctor of Nursing Practice project collection in our instance of Digital Commons. DNP projects are a unique type of content because they provide important research about nursing practices, but often go unpublished elsewhere. The GW DNP collection now contains over 120 items that have been downloaded over 95,000 times and therefore we were eager to explore additional avenues for disseminating this content beyond our IR and its subsequent indexing platforms.

Case Study: The Challenge Of Building An Italian National Repository Dedicated To The Field Of Medical Research, Susanna Mornati, Irene Buso, Federico Verlicchi, Andrea Bollini

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

4Science is designing a repository for a multi-institutional health system dedicated to medical research. The idea, promoted by a consortium of healthcare and health research institutions, will operate on the initial basis of the library network of these institutions. The idea of the project, which draws its foundations from the DSpace-CRIS platform, is to create a repository in which the libraries are interconnected and can thus share the repository infrastructure.

With this presentation, 4Science intends to expose and share the issues and opportunities that have arisen from working with such a large and complicated infrastructure as the Italian health system …

U.S. Repository Network: Moving From Vision To Action, Tina Baich

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

The U.S. Repository Network is an initiative of SPARC with support from the Confederation of Open Access Repositories (COAR). In its "Modernizing the Global Repository Network Initiative," COAR identified the need for assistance in breaking down institutional silos and developing a more cohesive approach and greater collaboration around repositories in the U.S. Through a Visiting Program Officer, SPARC engaged an expert group of library/repository professionals as well as the broader U.S. repository community to develop a strategic vision for U.S. repositories. This strategic vision is informing the development of an action plan for the U.S. Repository Network (USRN). The USRN …

Surveying The Medical Ir Landscape For Presentation Or Publication: Challenges And Opportunities, Ramune K. Kubilius

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

The medical institutional repository landscape is ever evolving and presents challenges for anyone who wishes to research it for presentation or publication. Librarians are one of the central stakeholders in the medical IR world, but not all librarians may be equally immersed in this area. Those who are directly involved may research and report on use cases and institution or platform-specific IR scenarios. Yet, it can be argued that in many instances, there is an important reason for introductory material on the "world of medical institutional repositories", in providing background and context. No matter one's job title or responsibilities, there …

Changes In Brain Oxygenation Of Rugby Players With Mild Traumatic Brain Injury During Match Play, Katherine Hermsen

Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) at UNI

Currently, concussions cannot be diagnosed by using imaging or laboratory tests. They can only be diagnosed by examining a patient and determining what their symptoms are compared to the symptoms that were or were not experienced before the patient was injured. If functional near-infrared spectroscopy can accurately detect the changes in brain hemodynamics after mild traumatic brain injury, it would allow athletic trainers and other health care professionals the ability to provide a more concrete diagnosis for the patient. This is significant as the frequency of sport-related concussions has been increasing, along with the possible long-term effects that are associated …

Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder: Performance On Language And Cognitive Testing, Hallee Mingus

Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) at UNI

Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD) Is a rare and widely unknown disease, often resulting in misdiagnosis and nonproductive therapy. It is a relapsing inflammatory demyelinating disease that affects the central nervous system and attacks the brain, resulting in severe physical &/or visual disability (Pfeuffer et al., 2017). What little knowledge we have about NMOSD, we hold an even smaller amount about its effects on speech and communication; which is what this case history study aims to answer. Due to the lack of information regarding NMOSD’s effects on an individual’s speech and communication abilities, assessments were performed in order to start …
