Abstract

ScholarlyCommons (http://repository.upenn.edu/) has served as the University of Pennsylvania’s open access institutional repository since 2004. The repository has allowed for faculty and others to share scholarly publications publicly and without paywalls. For the first ten years, it saw slow but steady growth in the deposit of a relatively small number of publications, as well as dissertations and theses. Since 2014, ScholarlyCommons has grown dramatically to include a wide variety of collections from Penn community members. ScholarlyCommons saw an array of positive developments in FY17. The number of materials posted to the repository hewed closely to the strong upward growth trends of the past three years, new staffing and training workflows were developed, and a slate of services were introduced that make it easier for the Penn community to capitalize on our offerings. This report will provide an overview of collection statistics, staffing, and other key developments in FY17. This report will also provide a general snapshot of overall repository growth.
