Abstract
In 2019, Cornell University Libraries decided to move two institutional repositories, the SHA Scholarly Commons and DigitalCommons@ILR, from Bepress into eCommons, Cornell’s university-wide platform for open scholarship. In this lighting talk, metadata librarians Julia and Chloe will share their successes and challenges in migrating approximately 50,000 records and digital objects from a proprietary system into an open source institutional repository built with DSpace, with a focus on metadata transfer and cleanup.
