Description, Abstract, or Artist's Statement

Colleges and universities vary in the ways they track, capture, or curate the scholarly output of their faculty members. Some use a centralized platform, such as an institution-wide Research Information Management (RIM) or Faculty Activity Reporting (FAR) system, while others leave this effort in the hands of individual departments, schools, or units. Some pay a vendor for a commercial solution while others develop their own tool in-house. Some require very specific, detailed reporting, while others are more laissez-faire in their approach. And, just as these methods vary, so does the role of the academic library in this effort. At the University of San Diego (USD), Copley Library has aligned itself with other academic administrative units to claim a leading role in identifying, organizing, and celebrating the intellectual output of the university.
