Commitment to Open Discovery
The University of Michigan Library supports the NISO Open Discovery Initiative (ODI) and its recommended practice on promoting transparency in discovery.
We commit to openness in discovery. As part of this, we're sharing our current practices in an ODI conformance statement.
The statement will be reviewed annually and updated as we make progress in the areas where we are not currently in full conformance with specific recommendations.
For more information, please contact Ken Varnum at varnum@umich.edu.
