Description
This article reports on a study of the adoption and use of an institutional digital repository and social networking website by the academic community of a graduate school of education in the Northeastern United States. Specifically, the researchers investigate:(1) the rate of adoption and use of the repository by faculty, staff, students and alumni of the university,(2) the contents and levels of participation of these respective groups, and (3) the emergence of collaborative, online and open access scholarship within the institution. Employing a Transaction Log Analysis (TLA) methodology, three successive years of database usage records were gathered and analyzed, and based on the findings, the researchers discuss the potential of digital repositories for advancing social scholarship.
