Digital Commons digitalcommons.unl.edu

Digital Commons is: a new project started by the Libraries in June 2005 an “institutional repository” (IR) = an electronic archive for UNL-related documents an opportunity for electronic publishing

Applications UNL units can archive electronic records and documents Faculty can publish electronically on the Internet in full-text, free-access versions Library can build and manage digital collections

The “institutional repository” (IR) receives and archives one electronic copy preserves this copy permanently in the UNL Libraries collections creates a stable URL with a unl.edu address provides and controls electronic access migrates the data as formats evolve

Electronic Publishing places scholarly publication tools directly in the hands of the faculty publishing online requires only: 1) MS Word, 2) a browser, 3) an address each publication “series” is controlled by its own editorial board or administrator no limits on article length or number, size, or colors of illustrations

Benefits: online work is accessible immediately, 24/7, worldwide visible to common search engines (such as Google) viewed and cited more frequently, especially by students stamped with author’s name and date of submission collected in one convenient accessible place permanently housed, even after you retire or move to another institution or different “plane of existence”

Who controls the copyright ? the author or author-entity the party to whom copyright may have been sold or licensed by the author not the library not the university (unless by separate agreement)

Rights to published works 92% of journals allow pre-publication posting to an IR 60% of journals have blanket policies allowing post-publication deposit most publishers will grant permission to authors for deposit in their home institution’s repository

Publishers who allow some form of self-archiving: American Economics Association American Institute of Physics American Mathematical Society American Psychological Association Am. Soc. of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology American Society of Plant Biologists Annual Reviews Arnold Publishers BioMed Central Biophysical Society Blackwell BMJ Publishing Group CAB International Cambridge University Press Ecological Society of America Elsevier Geological Society IEEE John Wiley Johns Hopkins University Press Kluwer National Academy of Sciences Nature Publishing Group Oxford University Press Royal Society Sage Springer Verlag Taylor & Francis University of California Press See

What the IR wants: CONTENT all of your published articles, or as many as you can muster any unpublished materials you wish to disseminate or store for future use any departmental documents you wish to share with the faculty, scholarly community, general public, or prospective students

Content: Published articles chapters books (out of print) patents reviews conference proceedings interviews NebGuides & NebFacts

Content: Unpublished manuscripts or working papers presentations or speeches colloquia, seminars, and conferences theses and dissertations field notes, data sets, updates teaching materials

Content: Records department review documents grant proposals press releases, newsletters and announcements course offerings and schedules department guides and handbooks committee reports program descriptions and requirements department & faculty web pages

Site structure

A “community” can be a: college school department program laboratory institute center publication collection other

Access to work can be: open to the public restricted to a subscription list completely restricted (i.e., not available, but archived for safe-keeping)

How do I get started ? 1. Identify an existing “series”; or establish a new one (1-page questionaire) 2. Log in to register and receive a password at Begin uploading files Submitting an article takes less than 2 minutes.

To establish a new “series” 1. Decide its affiliation or sponsoring “community” (department, school, college, etc.) 2. Give the series a name 3. Recruit or volunteer the series administrator(s) 4. Decide who may view materials 5. the information to

Costs There are no costs to the publishing unit. Hardware, set-up, programming, maintenance, and support costs are paid by the UNL Libraries.

Why put work online? Widest possible access—delivered right to the screen of any computer anywhere Full-text is linkable from any web page, , vita, or hypertext document Build or enhance an online presence, identity, and reputation In the near future: “You are who you are online.”

“But my article is already online...” Is it... Free? Or behind a wall — for paid users only? Available off-campus, in hotels, airports, internet cafes? Available in Delhi, Lagos, Beijing, or Bagdad? At its own linkable URL, or at the end of a Java search syntax? Indexed by Google? Contributing to the unl.edu domain? Accessible to your mother?

A cybernetic experiment: “Google” your article title and see what you get. Is there a free-access, full-text version listed in the top 10 results? If not, then the Digital Commons can possibly help put one there.
