Flotsam, Jetsam, and "Post-sam": IRs and Redundancies, Relocations, and Collective Action Problems
Location
Cook 206Z / Zoom
Presentation Type
Lightning Talk
Start Date
25-4-2024 4:40 PM
Description
A single faculty work may be posted to that faculty member's personal website, the publishing journal's website, a repository at the faculty member's current institution, a repository at a co-author's institution, a repository at the faculty member's previous institution, and so on.
For repository administrators, does the broadest possible availability of works outweigh adding to online "clutter" or (playing off the terms flotsam and jetsam) "post-sam"? What might best practices in this area look like, and what are some key hurdles to promoting standards when it comes to posting faculty works for those who manage and work with institutional repositories? How might such best practices be enforced?
This talk will outline some key challenges and briefly consider potential options in light of competing preferences.
