Digital Scholarship

The DePaul University Library Digital Scholarship Group is an interdisciplinary team drawn from several library departments. We partner with faculty, students, and staff at DePaul University and beyond to advance creative expression, teaching, learning, and research in the digital age. We showcase and preserve DePaul scholarly works for the long-term using our institutional repository, assist in planning and implementing scholarly digital projects, and provide training and consulting in the use of digital tools for education and research. We offer support for:

• Teaching and Learning: guidance with using digital resources in the classroom, creating digital environments, Open Education resources, learning environments available in the John T. Richardson library
  
• Scholarly Communication: sharing your creative work and findings and make them available to wider audiences
  
• Digital Publishing: assistance with publishing your scholarly output as well as depositing materials into our institutional repository, Via Sapientiae
• Digitization for Projects & Course Reserves: we digitize a range of materials for use in teaching and research
