Description/Abstract:

In order to present an online C.V. of their research outputs, researchers may have to produce the same information for multiple access points (such as institutional web pages, staff research profiles, and personal websites) thereby duplicating effort and leading to issues with out-of-date content.

The MePrints extension generates personal research pages and provides a personalised working area that is integrated into the EPrints repository service. When a research output is uploaded by a researcher it automatically appears on their research profile page; researchers save time and effort and the pages are kept up-to-date.

The University of the Arts London (UAL) and the University for the Creative Arts (UCA) both use EPrints repository software and have worked together through the JISC-funded Kultur (2007-09) and Kultivate (2010-2011) projects, and the Kultur II Group (2009- ), in order to encourage arts researchers to deposit their research outputs in institutional repositories.

According to the vision of JISC Repositories: take-up and embedding (JISCRTE), eNova takes-up the existing MePrints extension and the concept of 'kulturisation' from the Kultur project and fuses these together to provide an enhanced research profile tool suitable for the specific needs and behaviours of creative and visual arts researchers. By engaging users and working across institutional departments the embedding of the institutional research repository is facilitated and encouraged.
