Undergraduate Student Works In Institutional Repositories: An Analysis Of Coverage, Prominence And Discoverability, Angel Clemons, Tyler Goldberg

The Southeastern Librarian

Undergraduate research, however, appears to be much less common than faculty or graduate work. This paper examines the extent to which undergraduate student works (USW) are represented in the IRs of U.S. colleges and universities that use bepress’ Digital …
