Item Creating Efficient and Sustainable Workflows for Scholarly Works into a DSpace Repository(2018) Davis-Van Atta, Taylor; Ramirez, Ada Laura; Dulek, Diana; Washington, AnneIn fall 2017, a team at UH Libraries piloted an expanded set of repository services, including mediated submission of faculty and student works and faculty self-submissions. The Metadata and Digitization Services department worked closely with Digital Research Services to create and implement new workflows for the batch processing and upload of faculty and student research into the UH Institutional Repository. In the 2 month pilot phase, the team added over 650 faculty and student works to the IR and is now scaling up these services.Item Customized CV Service Workflows for DSpace Repositories(2019-09) Davis-Van Atta, Taylor; Washington, Anne; Dulek, Diana; Ramirez, Ada LauraSlides for a presentation delivered at the North American DSpace Users Group Meeting at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities, September 2019. Full workflows and service documentation available at bit.ly/UHoustonCVWorkflows. Conference abstract: The University of Houston Libraries has recently created and implemented workflows for the upload of large batches of faculty research into its DSpace Institutional Repository. These workflows are largely based on modifications made to existing scripts and open source packaging software, and were made possible through collaborative efforts with the Texas Digital Library and other DSpace institutions. This process has involved establishing new in-house metadata procedures and standards, templates for managing and sharing bibliographic data, and divisions of labor. Through the creation of these structured workflows, we have been able to scale our efforts, now employing and training a dedicated team of student employees to carry out this campus-wide service. Over a six-month span, the team has prepared over 1,300 full-text faculty works for ingest into the repository, using faculty CVs as its main source of bibliographic information. This presentation details the challenges and lessons learned from the development and refinement of these end-to-end workflows, as well as a discussion about the broader implications of establishing this option for our faculty researchers. We will package and publicly share all documentation related to this process in hopes that our efforts might inspire wider adoption of these workflows among the DSpace community.Item
