This guide is intended to introduce faculty, staff, students, and any other stakeholders to the Lewis University Institutional Repository. The Institutional Repository is administered by the Lewis University Library and is hosted externally on the Digital Commons platform provided by bepress.
This LibGuide will introduce what an Institutional Repository is, how it benefits the Lewis University community, and the core policies and guidelines in place for the platform. In addition, there will be some tutorials on how to submit your scholarly work to the platform.
This guide is also intended to work in tandem with our LibGuide on Copyright, Creative Commons, and the Institutional Repository.
The Lewis University Institutional Repository can be found here.
The attached documents are the main policy documents that guide the mission of the Lewis University Institutional Repository. These policies also have individual pages explaining them within this guide. These are also the same policies that are located on the sidebar of the Institutional Repository. Please read each policy carefully in preparation for using the Institutional Repository and always reach out if you have any questions!
