These slides were presented at the ER&L 2023 conference on March 6, 2023 in Austin, TX, USA.Presentation description:
Datasets and non-traditional research outputs are a growing use case for institutional repositories. We quantify how much FAIRer institutional repository outputs are and examine other benefits like reuse metrics and Altmetrics. Librarians can use this to quantify the value of their role and their institution's investment in the repository.Methods and file description:
This presentation compares metadata from researcher shared records on figshare.com and records shared through various institutional Figshare repositories. Metadata was harvested through Figshare's API (https://docs.figshare.com). Records publicly shared on figshare.com by researchers affiliated with a US based institution were found through figshare.com profiles registered using an email using an institution domain. Metadata for institution records were harvested from the institution repositories.
