Description
After two years of adjusting to workplace, research, and teaching disruptions in the post-pandemic world, it’s clear that universities are settling into a new reality. With the continued challenges to staffing and facilities, the need to provide tools to manage and showcase digital output continues to grow, with even more research and scholarly activities shifting to the digital space. Not only are academic journals experiencing up to 20% increased submissions since 2020, there is an increased need for the digitization of non-article content, with archives, labs, conferences, and courses pivoting to create greater digital access. At Digital Commons, we’ve been working closely with our community to hear about changing priorities and emerging needs in the last two year. In this presentation we’ll share new developments from Digital Commons, shaped by those conversations, including:
- Increasing digital access to physical artifacts
- Supporting multi-media born-digital projects
- Data-management (in all its forms) going digital
- Efficiently providing a comprehensive digital view of research output
- Modernizing digital journals to support multimedia outputs, streamline operations, and expand visibility
