SelectedWorks is a part of the Digital Commons network. It provides faculty with personal sites to display and share scholarly publications, presentations, CV and other areas of interest. SelectedWorks profile pages are available to Sacred Heart University faculty members with published content. Your site compiles your information and scholarship in one place with options to upload materials or link to other sites that contain your work. The Digital Commons Team at the library will create your SelectedWorks profile site for you. Email any citations or CV to Deana Santoro-Dillon santoro-dillond@sacredheart.edu. Once the site is created, you will be able to update or edit at any time. Profile pages may be as brief or extensive as you desire.
The Digital Commons Team asks that you allow them to enter scholarly works that you publish while at SHU in order to ensure copyright policy/licensing. They will be posted to both your department publications page in Digital Commons and your SelectedWorks site. Please inform them of any new articles or scholarly works and send texts or pre-publication versions if you have them. You may add any presentations or other works not displayed in your department faculty publications page in Digital Commons.
