Open Access Collections Digital Commons - Institutional Repository (bepress) Archives & Special Collections Archon database Print collections and staff based at Chicago Loop campus

OASIS: The NLU Digital Commons http://digitalcommons.nl.edu/ Aims & Scope i.e. publishes original refereed manuscripts that contribute to scholarship and the knowledge base of practitioner research. i.e. includes original practitioner research studies, theoretical articles pertaining to practitioner research, descriptions of practitioner research centers and book reviews. i.e.’s audience includes teachers, teacher educators, curriculum specialists, professional developers, administrators, educational policymakers, and others interested in practitioner research (such as museum, arts and medical professionals).

NLU Archives and Special Collections http://archon. nl

Open Access Contributes to scholarship & communities Supports NLU mission Underserved communities Access to quality higher education Inquiry Community engagement Demonstrate “value” for NLU and academic community (tangible evidence)

Evaluation Process & Criteria Local & Unique Reflects student and faculty scholarship Collections must be significant Accessible to communities

Student works & dissertations Conferences and Research forums History & Scholarship Student works & dissertations Conferences and Research forums Teacher education Heritage artifacts Elizabeth Harrison & Edna Dean Baker papers

Open Access Priorities Unique collections Historical significance Existing resources and partnerships Selective Branding Faculty and student scholarship

NLU 125th Anniversary 1886-2011 http://www.nl.edu/125/ http://archon.nl.edu/ Photos for promotional materials drawn from NLU archives and special collections Chicagoland architecture Early Kindergarten classrooms and artifacts Distinguished faculty and alumni Alumni outreach Class of 1958 yearbook photos digitized by request Alumni profiles places in digital commons Archon has a public access option, which Archivists’ Toolkit does not. The search-ability of the database both by the public and employees far surpasses the capabilities of Archivists’ Toolkit. Browsing by title, creator, digital objects, subjects and record groups, as well as keywords, is a great benefit of this program and something that is not possible in the software we are currently using. Digital objects, audio, and video can be attached to a finding aid and viewed within the context of the collection, record group, or fonds.

Challenges & OPPORTUNITIES Intellectual Property policy review Lack of staff for digitization projects Promote the Digital Commons and digital scholarship New P/T policy emphasizes research and scholarship

Questions? What challenges do you face with institutional repositories at your institution? What policies have been developed at your institution to deal with open access materials?
