IT@UC now requires university applications to use Duo 2-factor authentication through your phone when you log in.
Since Scholar@UC uses UC’s single-sign on with your six+two account, you will now see a Duo prompt when you log into the repository to submit content.
We have added some exciting new integrations to Scholar@UC (scholar.uc.edu). You can now link you Research Directory profile to your Scholar profile. We also added another cloud provider, DropBox for file ingestion. We have improved our fixity checking service to continue to provide integral preservation. Lastly, we have a developed a RESTFUL API for future integrations with other systems at UC. Please contact us if you would like access.
Please contact the Scholar@UC Team (scholar@uc.edu) with any questions.

Scholar@UC 3.0.2 was deployed on January 25th. We added an Office of Research lockup on homepage, set titles for static pages., added help text when adding and removing items from collections, adjusted “What is Scholar@UC” text on homepage, added college to the Scholar@UC People listing, removed the User “Joined On” date from user profile displays, and resolved various bug fixes.
Scholar@UC is built on the open source code from the Samvera project.
Please direct any questions to the Scholar@UC Team at Scholar@uc.edu.
Scholar@UC 3.01 was deployed on November 21. Display issues with the recent 3.0 release were fixed, such as missing paragraph breaks in Collection descriptions, a missing help page for DOI support, and a place in the interface that said “All of Hyrax” instead of “All of Scholar@UC.” Hyrax is the open source code from the Samvera project, which the Scholar@UC Team helps to maintain and uses as the base for Scholar@UC.
Please direct any questions to the Scholar@UC Team at Scholar@uc.edu.
On November 13 a major new release of Scholar@UC became available – Scholar 3.0 — and the earlier content freeze (see previous post) was lifted.

Scholar@UC is undergoing an upgrade! On Oct. 19 or soon after, Scholar@UC will freeze content to undergo a planned migration to an upgraded platform, “Scholar 3.0”. During the freeze, all content including works, collections, and user profiles will be available but read-only; submitting new content will not be possible during this time. The content freeze is projected to last a little over one week (restoring full access on October 30th or soon after). Once the migration is complete, an all-clear email will be sent out and new content contributions and changes can resume.

A recent article by Danniah Daher, graduate assistant to the Graduate School Office, entitled Scholar@UC: The Archive You Need, talks about the need to preserve and protect scholarly work and research data by submitting it to the university repository. Linda Newman, head of digital collections and repositories, is quoted as saying, “The mission of Scholar@UC is to preserve the permanent intellectual output of UC…We are very serious about preservation. We’re also very serious about access. We want to make the content accessible—content that otherwise would just be sitting on someone’s hard drive in their office. We consider preservation and access our two most important jobs.”
