Description
Berry College, a small liberal arts institution in Northwest Georgia, recently launched its institutional repository to enhance access to student and faculty scholarship. Beginning with a student-centered approach, we prioritized collecting Honors Theses and Symposium on Student Scholarship posters. Early promotion to stakeholders sparked faculty interest, accelerating our timeline to include locally created open educational resources. Since launch, the IR has increased visibility for student research and fostered faculty engagement. Learn about the implementation of the IR using AM Quartex and future plans to expand collections to include faculty publications, develop outreach strategies to support broader adoption of the IR across disciplines, and drive off-campus traffic to the site.
