Five years ago, Temple University took the first step toward increasing the global visibility and public value of Temple scholarship with the launch of our institutional repository, TUScholarShare<\/a>. The platform allows Temple scholars to share, promote, and archive a range of research and teaching outputs. As part of this year\u2019s International Open Access Week<\/a> (October 20-26th), the Libraries\u2019 Scholarly Communications Strategic Steering Team (SCSST) hosted an event in Charles Library on October 21st to proudly celebrate TUScholarShare\u2019s anniversary and all those across our Temple community who have contributed to its success.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hour-and-a-half catered event kicked off with opening remarks from Joe Lucia, Dean of Libraries, who reflected on the pivotal role institutional repositories play in helping the communities they serve reassert control over the knowledge they produce. Alicia Pucci, Assistant Director for Scholarly Communications and TUScholarShare\u2019s Administrator, followed with a presentation that showcased the initiative\u2019s milestones and global impact and demonstrated its upgraded platform.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The highlight of the event was the series of engaging lightning talks from repository contributors across the campus community who have used or considered using TUScholarShare to meet their strategic goals and share their work with audiences well beyond Temple. Presenters and their topics included: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
