How the Libraries Can HelpThe Libraries does not subscribe to Elements, but some of its features make use of information from library subscription databases. For this reason, librarians can offer guidance on automating aspects of your Publications in Elements. N.B. Your workload report is generated from the information you add or claim in Elements. Each faculty member is responsible for creating and maintaining their own profile in Elements. Librarians will neither create nor maintain your profile for you. Check the Provost's Elements Help site for additional support, including a list of college and departmental Elements liaisons. |
