Abstract

Thomas Jefferson University Library and University of Massachusetts Medical School Library have two important things in common: successful institutional repositories and experienced library leaders that developed them.

Please join Dan Kipnis and Ann Koopman of Thomas Jefferson University, and Lisa Palmer of University of Massachusetts Medical School for a free webinar on institutional repositories (IRs) at medical schools.

Speakers will explore how each organization decided to start an IR, how the IRs have evolved, unique IR collections, successful partnerships, challenges and opportunities, and the future of medical IRs.
