Working with Alma, Converis and Esploro in the life cycle of institutional research outputs

11-13 September: IGeLU 2023 Conference + Ex Libris Knowledge Days
14 September: Developers' Day + Ex Libris Knowledge Days + Ex Libris Primo VE Workshops

Except for sessions marked as "Physical session only (no live streaming)", all sessions are accessible to physical and virtual participants.

In academia, we are in a transformative phase of the publishing market, with high pressure to publish, increasing adoption of open access models, and the need to make research outputs more visible, both for assessment and career purposes. In this scenario, academic and research libraries are in many contexts at the forefront of supporting the creation, funding, and dissemination of data while creating opportunities for new roles and development for librarians.
The management of funding requests, open access dedicated funds, article processing charges, transformative agreements, and assessment initiatives require the design of new workflows for a better and more efficient integration between systems. By analysing the case of an academic library already working in these areas using Alma, Converis, and Esploro, the solutions already implemented, their limitations, and the improvements to be made are presented.
