• Resumen

  • This article describes the workflow used to ingest faculty publication citations into a Digital Commons platform Institutional Repository, by repurposing metadata harvested from the Web of Science using web services. This approach, along with a workflow, were developed to improve the populating process for the IR. Improving upon the previous manual process, this approach automates most of the collecting and ingesting process and greatly improves ingesting efficiency. A discussion of the benefits and limitations of the new approach is also provided.
