Highlights from therecommendations

Library collections and institutional repositories are rich sources for knowledge discovery.

Share the library collection (metadata and/or fulltexts) under an open license to improve the re-use of these metadata and, along with it, increase discoverability of your institution's scholarly works and researchers.

Engagement with scholarly works always results in networks that can be exploited for detecting related scholarly works, topics, and/or people.
