Kent State University Libraries is excited about the launch of Digital Commons @ Kent State University Libraries. Digital Commons, located online at http://digitalcommons.kent.edu/, is an open-access institutional repository highlighting research and scholarship at Kent State. Powered by bepress, an online platform built by scholars to serve the needs of scholars, Digital Commons will provide Kent State University with a range of innovative online services, including an open-access repository, online journal publishing, digital image galleries, and conference and event planning.
Please join University Libraries for a formal launch on Monday and Tuesday, Oct. 21 and 22, with a kickstart event at the University Library. Kent State community members are invited to join library and bepress staff to learn how Digital Commons can serve their needs. Orientation and training sessions will be offered throughout the two-day event. To see descriptions of kickstart sessions open to all, visit http://digitalcommons.kent.edu/kickstart/sessions/general/.
