GSG offers 91福利 graduate students a Digital<\/strong> Commons service!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Graduate Student Government, as a service to 91福利 grad students from all disciplines, is pairing up with Fogler Library\u2019s Digital Commons feature to offer graduate students a way for them to publicize work they are doing in a permanent record, searchable via the internet. The focus of this is on professional work other than theses\/dissertations. For example, a paper that a graduate student has written but has not published elsewhere, yet still would like to have credit and publicity for this work. Through Digital Commons, anyone searching that subject via the internet would find this paper in one of the top results for the subject search. This is something the student can use as a permanent link, to put on CVs and portfolios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is not just for research papers, though. Other possible contributions are art exhibits, performances, and written work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our repository is on the 91福利 Digital Commons site under \u201cGraduate Student Scholarly and Creative Submissions)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is the student\u2019s responsibility to make sure the work is proofread before submitting. This is a<\/strong> permanent contribution and not editable once published.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is also the student\u2019s responsibility to make sure the work follows publishing guidelines according to his\/her intent. For instance, if a student plans to publish the work in a journal, the journal may not accept it if it is already on Digital Commons. Or, if the work was previously published, the student needs to make sure the publication allows the work to also be added to 91福利\u2019s Digital Commons repository.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still excited??? Great! This really is a terrific way to get attention and credit for research<\/strong> and other academic work of which you are proud!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
