    It’s Never Too Early to Start: Let’s Curate Your Online Scholarly Presence for Residency Applications
    (2025-04-25) Craven, Hannah J.; Shanks, Anthony L.; Pieczko, Brandon T.
    Introduction/Background: A student’s residency application includes various components such as personal statements, letters of recommendation, medical school transcripts and exam scores. With the shift to pass/fail exams, residency applications now rely more heavily on qualitative measures. Reviewers must evaluate applicants based on other markers of excellence, making scholarly activity documentation increasingly important. To better support IUSM students, we aim to teach both students and mentors how to effectively claim and promote their scholarly work online, enhancing their visibility and impact. This initiative aligns with the IUSM strategic plan to maximize learner success statewide, particularly the goal of ensuring learners are well-prepared for their next professional transition. Workshop objective: After our workshop, participants will be able to upload individual scholarly items to our institutional repository, IU Indianapolis ScholarWorks; list those works on their ORCiD profile; create a Google Scholar profile; understand basic individual research metrics; and consider any other online footprints Learning Goals: The goals of our workshop are to introduce the idea and benefit of a scholarly online presence to students at any stage of their undergraduate medical education career; set students up with this career-long skill of maintaining their works, which is much easier to begin curating earlier in their career; and encourage early career students to explore options for research projects with faculty. Methods: Participants will be introduced to the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS). The online ERAS worksheet will be utilized, particularly the publications section. We will demonstrate how to upload a scholarly work to our institutional repository. The persistent link created from our upload can be placed in the ERAS publication section, in our online ORCID profile, and will appear in Google Scholar after a few weeks. Resources will be shared encouraging students to consider collaborating on research projects with faculty.

    Open Knowledge Report (2017-2018)
    (2019-03-10) Lemus-Rojas, Mairelys
    This report includes all Wikimedia-related activities from January 1st, 2017 to December 31, 2018. It covers events hosted at IUPUI University Library and the Ruth Lilly Medical Library, and projects focused on making our archival collections, library-hosted publications, and the scholarly output of our faculty members more accessible. In addition, it includes a list of relevant publications as well as presentations given at various conferences as a way of sharing ongoing efforts and increasing awareness of Open Knowledge projects.

    Tips to Leverage Your ORCID
    (2024-04-26) Dolan, Levi; Craven, Hannah J.; Ramirez, Mirian; Whipple, Elizabeth C.
    Introduction/Background: An effective scholarly presence means not only publishing research, but also connecting research outputs to an online professional identity. ORCID (Open Research and Contributor ID) is a not-for-profit organization that allows researchers to create a unique persistent identifier to organize their bibliography, datasets, grants, and other works. An ORCID is affiliation-agnostic and keeps researchers with similar names distinct, increasing attribution accuracy. Workshop Objectives: By connecting their ORCID profile to existing systems, researchers can benefit from automated updates that support validation and efficient presentation of their scholarly outputs. After introducing how to create an ORCID profile, this workshop will move beyond ORCID basics and walk through how to maximize the benefits of a centralized online presence for a researcher’s works. Methods: This workshop will focus on the steps for setting up connections with three major systems for populating ORCID profiles: CrossRef (an aggregator of metadata for scholarly literature publication outlets), DataCite (similar to CrossRef, but focused on data repositories), and Scopus (one of the most powerful scholarly publishing databases for managing author affiliation information). Attendees will participate in the hands-on processes needed to set up their ORCID profiles if needed, and to open these connections so that in the future they will not need to manually enter data for their profiles to be updated, minimizing maintenance time needed to maintain their scholarly presence. Learning Goals: Attendees can expect to leave this workshop with a robust persistent record of their research outputs. This will increase the findability and reusability of their research, which will provide avenues for greater scholarly impact. An ORCID profile is not a prerequisite for attending.

    Using Wikidata to Provide Visibility to Women in STEM
    (2019-09-24) Lemus-Rojas, Mairelys; Lee, Yoo Young
    Wikidata is an open knowledge base that stores structured linked data. It contains over 58 million items (“Wikidata:Statistics,” n.d.), but its data reveal a noticeable and prevalent gender disparity. In an effort to contribute to the growth and enhancement of women entries in Wikidata, the Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) University Library and the University of Ottawa Library collaborated to embark on pilot projects that broaden the representation and enhance the visibility of women in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics). In this article, we share the methods used at both institutions for collecting faculty data, batch ingesting data using external tools, as well as mapping archival data to existing Wikidata properties. We also discuss the challenges faced during the pilot projects.

    Wikidata for Scholarly Communication Librarianship
    (IUPUI University Library, 2022-07-01) Odell, Jere D.; Lemus-Rojas, Mairelys; Brys, Lucille
    Wikidata for Scholarly Communication Librarianship was developed for anyone working in an academic library (or interested in working in an academic library) who may have a small or large role in supporting scholarly communication related services. The first two chapters, however, could serve as a basic introduction to Wikidata for anyone in academic librarianship. The remaining three chapters focus on a few topics that may be of more interest to those who work on open metadata, research metrics, and researcher profile projects.
