ScholarWorks

IUPUI ScholarWorks is a service of the IUPUI Libraries that provides long-term access to a broad range of IUPUI-related digital content of enduring value.

The IUPUI Libraries work to ensure that the campus's scholarly works are as widely available as possible. IUPUI ScholarWorks provides open access to the work that makes IUPUI a leading, urban research and education campus. By preserving and sharing, IUPUI ScholarWorks increases the visibility of faculty, staff, students, departments, programs, institutes, and other formal and informal campus communities.
