Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Artifact Description
Digital Commons @ Michigan Tech is managed as a service of the university’s Van Pelt and Opie Library. Michigan Technological University also subscribes to SelectedWorks, which the library also offers to manage for faculty. It is run by a relatively small staff, including a manager, copyright checker, and 2 student assistants. The major focus of repository growth is currently on developing collections of faculty publications for each college, school, and department on campus through fully mediated deposit.Serving nearly 500 academic staff, our team (dedicating roughly 1 FTE) has had to carefully negotiate how we advertise the Digital Commons and SelectedWorks services so that we continue to grow the repository in a responsive and sustainable fashion. With increasing support from library administration we are ready to offer Digital Commons @ Michigan Tech as a critical service to our scholarly community.This lightning talk will discuss several methods the Van Pelt and Opie Library staff have used over the past year to advertise the mediated deposit service, which includes complete rights checking, for Digital Commons @ Michigan Tech and SelectedWorks. These include presentations for faculty, print and digital mailings, and outreach through an online faculty newsletter.To be presented by Annelise Doll, Scholarly Communications and Repositories Librarian at Michigan Technological University's Van Pelt and Opie Library.
