Program Overview
The UNO Library offers ScholarWorks@UNO as a publishing platform for faculty and student scholarship. Our goal is to provide the tools and support for the broadest possible dissemination of campus research and creative work, thereby fulfilling a key element of the University mission: the promotion of research excellence. In so doing, we provide opportunities for students to engage with scholarly communications issues and take their first steps as scholars in their respective disciplines. Our broad range of publications, which currently include a student-edited, peer-reviewed literary journal, conference proceedings, working papers, technical reports, and student theses and dissertations, engage both our local community and the worldwide audience of readers and scholars. In the future we hope to host even more kinds of scholarly and creative work, including datasets and multimedia content. By combining a dynamic publishing platform with expert support, we can contribute to a more open and innovative scholarly communication system that facilitates discovery, collaboration, and the advancement of knowledge.
