Description
In fulfilling a charge to evaluate IR options for University of Arkansas - Little Rock, the library’s IR Task Force had to plan for both short-term considerations (platform selection and implementation) and long-term considerations (sustainable inclusions to meet researcher and institutional needs). One necessary tool developed for implementation was a decision rubric, which identified crucial elements for a successful platform selection and basic functionality. Long-term sustainable practices suggested supporting researcher needs, such as data set hosting, citation metrics, and DOI minting. Attendees will learn how to create a decision rubric and the importance of data set hosting and DOI minting in reference to IR selection, rule compliance, and citation tracking.
