The new Academic Repository at Saint Mary's College is a place where the SMC community (faculty, students, staff, and affiliated groups) can showcase, share, and archive their scholarship, stories, research data, and creative work.
Sue Wiegand, Sept. 2024
The SMC Academic Repository is a place to collect and share scholarly activity by Saint Mary's College students, faculty and staff. It is a digital collection, curated by the library. When you go to the Academic Repository, you can click on a department and see everything that the department’s faculty, staff, and students have deposited to be saved in the repository. It is like a library catalog for items created by the Saint Mary's College community.
The Academic Repository may also be referred to sometimes as a type of Institutional Repository.
What is an Institutional Repository?
An Institutional Repository is a web-based digital database system and set of services to collect, preserve, and share scholarly materials created by an institution’s community members. It works as a place to collect articles, books, stories, conference proceedings and presentations, and other items of institutional interest related to Saint Mary's College in one place.
What kinds of scholarly activity can be shared in the Academic Repository?
The Academic Repository will host previously-published work (preprints and postprints), conference presentations, peer-reviewed journal articles, book chapters, essays, datasets, audio files, video files, graduate theses, and syllabi. Anything that is creative, scholarly, research oriented, or of institutional significance can be included, as long as it is copyright compliant and not protected by statutes or laws.
Who can be included in the Academic Repository
SMC faculty, staff, students, organizations, divisions, departments, alumnae, co-authors, publications, College-sponsored events, conference speakers, featured speakers, and affiliates.
Why should you use the Academic Repository?
To increase the visibility and impact of your scholarship, provide unified access and preserve SMC scholarship in one place, also providing Open Access to your scholarship regardless of where you publish.
