Development Of An Archive At Monmouth Medical Center, Frederic Pachman

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

Monmouth Medical Center, founded in 1887, was the first hospital at the Jersey Shore. Over the past thirty years there was a limited effort to develop archival and historical collections that document this rich history. In conjunction with the medical center's 125th anniversary in 2012, a consultant was retained to evaluate the archives, develop operational policies and prepare exhibits. Public programs and exhibits about the medical center have been presented to state and local organizations, and a schedule of historical programs is offered in-house during National Hospital Week. The archival collections were actively used to celebrate the medical center's anniversary …

Data Catalogs, Metadata, And Data Discovery: How Data Catalogs Extend And Enhance The Ir Ecosystem, Anthony Dellureficio

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

Data catalogs contain metadata-only records for datasets, code, analytical tools, or other research outputs not traditionally included in bibliographic catalogs. The records include curated, enhanced descriptive metadata in order to supply additional access points, provide access instructions or explain data restrictions, connect researchers working on common topics, connect datasets with relevant analytical tools, track publications and funding associated with datasets, and highlight otherwise undiscoverable datasets while still accommodating concerns over PHI exposure. The Data Discovery Collaboration (DDC), a multi-institutional consortium providing a platform-agnostic community of practice to support research data discoverability through metadata, outreach, and software development, is focusing on …

Manuscript Repository To Support Rigor In Dnp Scholarship, Marina Cuneo, Claire Sharifi, Jo Ann Loomis

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

The Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree process supports the dissemination of nursing scholarship. Peer reviewed nursing journals have reported an increase in volume of student submissions over the past decade, but only some of them are initially publishable. As an alternative or supplement to journal submission, the University of San Francisco has developed a library-based institutional repository collection for these manuscript submissions that is globally findable, searchable, and accessible. Submission to the repository does not compromise rigor, and manuscripts can be submitted to peer reviewed journals when and if student and faculty are committed to the editorial process.

This change was brought about due to staff changes in the library team responsible for the IR and a dedicated effort to promote the IR across the hospital. This presentation will address the steps the library services team undertook to bring the IR out …

Figshare Repositories: New Data-Sharing Features For Researchers And Librarians, Andrew Mckenna-Foster

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

With expanding funder data sharing policies, especially the new NIH data management and sharing policy slated for 2023, we expect that researchers from medical research institutions will increasingly need trusted repositories to share data and all of the other products of their research. However, the complexity of sharing medical research data, even when anonymized, means data are often not shared despite funder policies. In the past year, Figshare, a trusted repository platform that meets funder requirements across the globe, released a suite of new features to fit data sharing needs, increase impact, and encourage sharing. Useful to both researchers and …

Community-Driven Repository Infrastructure Programs At Lyrasis—An Overview, Paolo P. Gujilde, Sheila Rabun, Hannah Rosen

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

Academic libraries, and institutional repositories in particular, play a key role in the ongoing quest for ways to gather metrics and connect the dots between researchers and research contributions in order to measure “institutional impact,” while also streamlining workflows to reduce administrative burden. Identifying accurate metrics and measurements for illustrating “impact” is a goal that many academic research institutions share, but these goals can only be met to the extent that all organizations across the research and scholarly communication landscape are using best practices and shared standards in research infrastructure. For example, persistent identifiers (PIDs) such as ORCID iDs (Open …

In fall 2020, Temple University Libraries launched the university’s first institutional repository, TUScholarShare, as a place to collect, manage, and provide public access to Temple’s research, data, and teaching outputs. Shortly thereafter, this initiative prompted a collaborative effort of the Libraries Research Data Services and Systematic Review Search Service to deposit search strategies and citation results as data in TUScholarShare. With these deposits, we hope to make systematic reviews more open and reproducible by making the search strategies and results discoverable to the research community at Temple University and beyond.

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

To increase local contributions to medical education scholarship, a medical school began hosting an annual school-wide conference in 2020. Two librarians worked proactively with conference organizers to preserve and provide access to presentation materials and session recordings. This targeted outreach became more effective in the second year as students and faculty were invited on the conference submission form to express interest in contributing materials to the university’s institutional repository. The librarians were able to use this list of interested participants to obtain permissions, additional information, and address potential questions rather than relying on a post-hoc solicitation of conference materials. Workflow …

Medical Institutional Repositories in Libraries (MIRL)

The emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic initially caused widespread academic conference cancellations, leaving many University of Tennessee Health Science Center (UTHSC) faculty members without a means to present scholarship required for the annual review process. Faculty members concerned about meeting their scholarship requirements appealed to campus administration for assistance. UTHSC’s Health Sciences Library (HSL) was able to step in and offer the library-managed UTHSC Digital Commons repository as a solution to this dilemma. The urgency of faculty concerns, combined with positive messaging about Digital Commons coming from campus administration, increased campus interest in the repository. Ultimately, as conferences transitioned to …
