ResearchWorks

ResearchWorks, the customized version of Ex Libris Esploro at Creighton University, is a research management system that uses machine learning to collect the scholarly and creative works of Creighton faculty.  Works are harvested from a central index which contains bibliographic data from nearly 20,000 interdisciplinary databases. 

ResearchWorks combines the previous content of the Faculty Scholarship Module of the Provost’s Database Management System, the Creighton Digital Repository, and Elsevier Pure. Please explore the ResearchWorks interface and let us know what you think by contacting researchworks@creighton.edu.

What moved? All of the content of the Faculty Scholarship Module of the Provost’s Database Management System and Pure has been migrated to ResearchWorks.  While the scholarly works and faculty bibliography content in the Creighton Digital Repository (CDR) has been migrated to ResearchWorks, the CDR is still hosting archival materials, including archival copies of journal articles and issues.

If you have questions about your content, please contact our ResearchWorks team at researchworks@creighton.edu.

The type of content housed in ResearchWorks includes but is not limited to:

• journal publications (both pre- and post-print)

• conference papers and proceedings

• presentations

• working papers

• book chapters

• multimedia

• theses and dissertations

Content archived in ResearchWorks is
