University of Glasgow and the REF

• Submitted data on 1358 staff and more than 22,000 publications across 27 UoAs

• For comparison we submitted c.5000 outputs across 48 UoAs for RAE 2008

• Checked 7000 ‘additional’ publications identified in Web of Science by Symplectic and accepted around a third of these

• WoS data now available for ingest into the Repository

Enrich: Background and Drivers

• Mature and well established institutional repository service (since 2001) at Glasgow

• A “hybrid” repository with over 4900 records for published research outputs

• Publications policy approved by University Senate in June 2008

• Library engagement and participation in the RAE and the REF Pilot - working with Research & Enterprise

• Strong relationships between the Library’s repository managers and the University academic community

• Well developed Research Management System• Recognition that the repository cannot move forward

as a disconnected data silo

Enrich: Key Objectives

• Delivering a comprehensive University-wide repository which will also act as a central publications database (going back to at least 2001)

• Enhancing usability for depositors with links to the University’s Research System using SSO

• Effectively managing the content in the repository including usage statistics and monthly deposit reports

• Providing clear deposit policies and workflows with academic departments and faculties

• Creating staff profile pages on the web using data from core institutional systems including Enlighten and the Research System

• Ensuring compliance with funders’ open access grant and award policies

• Improving publicity and dissemination of research outputs

Enrich: Three Key Elements for Success

• RelationshipsStrong relationships between repository managers and staff at all levels are vital in supporting the deposit of content.

• Systems and ProcessesTechnical and administrative processes needed to join-up the existing elements of the research lifecycle which will facilitate the ease of deposit.

• PoliciesManagement and monitoring of both the University’s Publication Policy and those of our funders to ensure compliance.

Integration Opportunities

• Two way links between Enlighten and the Research System (autocomplete and look-up features)

• Automated alerts from the Research System which highlight to researchers that they must deposit their papers in an appropriate repository, in line with their grant conditions

• Reports showing Projects/Funders and associated publications

• Training programme for Library and Research and Enterprise staff to better understand each other’s systems and facilities (and opportunities to improve the systems)

Enrich will:

• Enable us to effectively implement the University’s Publication Policy for mandatory full text deposit from September 2008 onwards

• Establish links between currently disconnected resources

• Provide a suite of management information reports and supporting actions which ensure our Publications Policy is effective

• Ensure a vast increase in the number of awards in the Research System that are made public

• Maintain a watching brief on the REF and associated repository tools and projects including I-Wire and R4R
