Scholarly Communication, Copyright, and Publishing

The Dartmouth library can help faculty, staff and students share their work in ways that engage diverse voices, encourage student contribution, and empower the Dartmouth community to build a more equitable and sustainable knowledge ecosystem.

Share scholarly research and other works. We can help faculty, staff and students understand the possibilities for publishing research and provide platforms for distributing scholarship

Understand laws for sharing and using works. We can help guide you through the general principles of copyright and intellectual property law and how they may apply to specific situations.

Use and create class materials for students. Open textbooks and other open educational resources (OER) remove cost barriers to education and help professors tailor course materials to meet their needs.
