Recent Faculty Publications Now available...

We are pleased to announce that RUanalytic is now available. RUanalytic allows students and faculty members to create a playlist of video clips that can be annotated, analyzed, and published for use in research, dissertations, and instruction. The RUanalytic allows users to include annotations specific to each clip and clips from multiple videos. The Libraries developed this tool after intensive design research for an NSF-funded mathematics education grant, in collaboration with the Rutgers Graduate School of Education.

RU Senate Votes to Make Research Publicly Available At their October 19th meeting the University Senate overwhelmingly approved a resolution, proposed by the Open Access Subcommittee, that states that the university should "establish, in conjunction with University Counsel, a University-wide Open Access policy wherein Rutgers faculty and scholars, including graduate students and postdoctoral researchers, shall provide open access to all works that are produced without expectation of payment, subject to waivers and embargoes upon request by an individual author for a specific work." In his address to the Senate later in the meeting, Rutgers University President Robert Barchi spoke in support of the resolution. Read more about this exciting development here. Journal of the RULibraries Celebrates 75 Years Launched in December 1937, Journal of the Rutgers University Libraries is the longest running scholarly-oriented publication of the Rutgers University Libraries. This year, it reached a milestone of seventy-five years. Please join us in celebrating this accomplishment on Thursday, December 6th. To read more and for event details, click here. |
