Dear all,



Montclair State University achieved a major milestone this year, earning
the high-research activity R2 status by the Carnegie Classification of
Institutions of Higher Education. An essential part of their
transformation? Their institutional repository. On *October 30*, join
Montclair State repository team members Karen Ramsden and Darren Sweeper as
they describe the challenges and successes of integrating their IR into a
growing culture of research. Topics include:



·            Aligning the institutional repository with strategic goals to
give the library a seat at the table

·            Engaging internal and external stakeholders with the IR

·            Outreach to faculty on a changing campus

·            Continuing to leverage the power of the repository
