Abstract

ABSTRACT Institutional repositories are valuable platforms that facilitate access to the research output of an institution. Theses and dissertations are preserved at most higher education institutions and are valuable materials to prioritize for digitization when building an institutional repository. The purpose of this case study is to share reproducible workflows for digitization, enhanced with automation, that can be adopted by other institutions who aim to increase accessibility and discoverability of their unique institutional research. Few studies have shared their workflows in a detailed, transparent way that can be reproduced by others who are interested in taking on digitization projects to improve access and discoverability via an institutional repository.

从堆叠到屏幕：通过数字化和自动化提高论文和论文的获取

摘要机构知识库是一个有价值的平台，有助于获取机构的研究成果。论文和学位论文保存在大多数高等教育机构，是在建立机构知识库时优先考虑数字化的宝贵材料。本案例研究的目的是共享可复制的数字化工作流程，并通过自动化进行增强，其他机构可以采用这些工作流程，以提高其独特机构研究的可访问性和可发现性。很少有研究以详细、透明的方式分享他们的工作流程，其他有兴趣参与数字化项目的人可以复制这些工作流程，以通过机构存储库提高访问和发现能力。
