How are Profiles Created?
Created automatically using information from Duke systems, Scholars content comes from a number of trusted sources. Profiles can customized by their owners and their delegates.
- Publications come from Elements, a tool that consumes publications from bibliographic sources like Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, arXiv, RePEc, and others. Publications can also be added manually.
- Open Access publications are easy to add to Duke Libraries' Open Access repository, making them freely available to colleagues, students, and the general public, which increase their impact.
- Datasets deposited with Duke’s Research Data Repository will be added by Duke Libraries to Elements. (For questions about depositing your data here at Duke or elsewhere, contact datamanagement@duke.edu.)
- Appointments and other faculty data come from dFac, Duke's faculty system in SAP.
- Grants are loaded from Duke's Sponsored Projects System, and can also be added manually in Scholars.
- Courses come from DukeHub, Duke's courses system.
- Other automated content includes "In the News" from the Office of News and Communications and "Industry Relationships" from the Conflicts of Interest system (coming soon).
