Program Overview

eScholarship@UMMS is a digital repository and publishing system offering worldwide access to scholarly publications authored by the University of Massachusetts Medical School (UMMS) community. Our goal is to serve as a portfolio for institutional successes by collecting, organizing, disseminating, and showcasing UMMS achievements in research and education by our faculty, researchers, staff, and students. eScholarship@UMMS increases citation impact and visibility and expands the reach of UMMS scholarship worldwide. We welcome submissions from UMMS faculty, staff, and students for articles, manuscripts, presentations, posters, datasets, and other scholarly materials. Our publishing services – including open access, peer-reviewed electronic journals, student dissertations and theses, and conference proceedings – highlight the works of UMMS authors and others. eScholarship@UMMS is a service of the Lamar Soutter Library, Worcester, MA, USA, in support of its mission to disseminate information and research to scholars, educators, and the public.
