  • Research Information Management in the United States. Part Two: Case Studies. OCLC Research Report Bryant, Rebecca Fransen, Jan de Castro, Pablo Helmstutler, Brenna Scherer, David Research Universities Information Management Metadata Data Use Data Collection Information Systems College Faculty Reports Access to Information Compliance (Legal) Research Information Management (RIM) is a rapidly growing area of investment in US research universities, comprised of a variety of use cases, stakeholders, and products. This growth has been characteristically decentralized, resulting in silos, multiple systems, and frequent duplication of efforts at many institutions. This report is a two-part report series seeks to fill a gap in the literature by documenting RIM activities to provide U.S. research institutions with a more comprehensive and strategic view of RIM practices. Part 2 of this report, provides an in-depth narrative of the RIM practices at five US research institutions: (1) Penn State University; (2) Texas A&M University; (3) Virginia Tech; (4) UCLA; and (5) University of Miami. Each case study includes content about the history and relevant use cases as well as significant documentation about each RIM system and its implementation, including its scope, stakeholders, and administrative leadership. It also provides an extensive description of the RIM systems themselves, detailing the data sources, processing and storage practices, and system goals and uses. The narratives conclude by documenting the metadata and sources populating each RIM system and describing future plans for the institutional RIM system(s). [For Part One, see ED623599.]
