W&M ScholarWorks

William & Mary ScholarWorks preserves and provides access to the research and creative output of William & Mary’s faculty, staff, and students.

To best serve the William & Mary research community, we have decided to migrate platforms which may initially disrupt services and may temporarily limit access to the content currently supported in the repository.

See below for our projected timeline and contact us with any questions or concerns (scholarworks@wm.edu).

Projected Migration Timeline:
Summer 2024

  • Metadata remediation
  • Data analysis
  • Replicate institutional structure and tagging

Fall 2024

  • Initiate content migration from Digital Commons to DSpace
  • Re-establish Research Centers and Labs
  • Discontinue profile creation (Elsevier is sunsetting Selected Works Faculty Profiles in December 2024)
  • Email “final bepress” reports

Spring 2025

  • Upload Spring Honors Undergraduate ETDs using Digital Commons
  • Batch upload Masters and Doctoral ETDs from ProQuest using Digital Commons
  • Consolidate downloads and usage statistics and reports

Summer 2025

  • New ScholarWorks site goes live
