“Open access to information has long been a tenet of libraries as it provides opportunity for students and scholars alike in both the sharing and availability of research and data. With UC Libraries moving into the second year of our strategic plan implementation, and with significant digital infrastructure and partnership build up, we are primed to be a catalyst for promoting open access, open education and open data across the university.” “The University of Cincinnati Press supports the Libraries’ vision to become the globally engaged, intellectual commons of the university—positioning ourselves as the hub of collaboration, digital innovation and scholarly endeavor on campus.” “These two projects, while different in scope and reach, are outgrowths of UC Libraries mission to empower discovery, stimulate learning and inspire the creation of knowledge by connecting students, faculty, researchers and scholars to dynamic data, information and resources.” “Digital humanities/digital scholarship, which includes efforts in digital humanities, research data management, digital repositories, born-digital archives management and long-term digital assets preservation, are core components of UC Libraries’ current Strategic Plan.”
