Repositories at Glasgow Caledonian University
We are developing a digital repository in partnership with Academic Research Development. It will store the outputs of publicly funded research projects and make them available to an external audience. It brings together the output of the University’s research activity in one place and at the same time helps raise internal awareness of what we do in research.
The repository will give researchers worldwide access to our research output, which helps promote citation and will foster collaboration via the publication alert functionality of the system.
It is called ResearchOnline @ GCU and was formally launched on 2nd February 2011.
Academic staff were asked to submit details of their research publications that have appeared since RAE2008 for inclusion in the repository. The University research committee used peer reviewed quality research publications deposited in the repository as part the submission to the UK Research Excellence Framework in 2014.
A new learning objects repository managed by the Digital Development and Information Literacy team is under development and will go live later in 2015. Contact them on infservdd@gcu.ac.uk
