AB  - As Digital Measures is no longer used by the University of [University Name], the College of Engineering approached the Engineering Library for identifying a new system to showcase their faculty work. The Engineering Library identified Esploro, a research information management system powered by Ex Libris, because there are several advantages: (1) we have full control of metadata; (2) publication records are indexed and searchable in our library catalog system; (3) publication records are discoverable by search engines; (4) Smart Harvest, an automated content harvesting feature,  can load publication records from a variety of sources; (5) a complete list of publications can be easily generated for grant applications and reviews. Since the College of Engineering is the first college to adopt Esploro, there is no standard workflow for us to follow. We developed a workflow by trial and error: (1) making  an initial estimate of the volume of the publication records for 110 voting faculty; (2) turning on the Smart Harvest to load records; (3) reviewing whether the potential records are matched to the correct people, noting especially markers of quality such as for DOIs and document types, and manually approving or rejecting the records in Esploro; (4) identifying and collecting records  in Scopus to expand the Ex Libris database; (5) activating Smart Harvest again to add additional records that were missed; (6) running various reports about quality of records and improving records as needed. Facing the major challenges including the large volume of records, DOIs not existing in journal articles published in early years, and DOIs not existing in some conference proceedings and book chapters, we shared some best practices and lessons learned. Since Esploro continues to be enhanced, we will refine our workflow with new functionality as it is added.
