The UNCW Library has transferred all items from SEAHAWK DOCKS to the new UNCW Institutional Repository. Hosted on Lyrasis's DSpace Direct Platform, the UNCW Institutional Repository will continue to serve as a digital archive for preserving, showcasing, and providing open access to the scholarly and creative works of the University community.

New features of the UNCW Institutional Repository:

• Community members can create accounts and add items through single sign-on.
• Collections are now organized according to the current university structure.
• Contributors can set embargo periods for deposited items to comply with academic journal copyright agreements.

For more information on how to use the UNCW Institutional Repository, please refer to this LibGuide.

We extend our gratitude to UNC Greensboro, which is phasing out support for NC DOCKS, for graciously providing a repository platform for much of the UNC System over the past several decades.

The UNCW Library is working to ensure the accurate transfer of metadata for each item from SEAHAWK DOCKS to the UNCW Institutional Repository. We appreciate your patience and support as this process continues. If you notice any issues with your deposited items, please contact Dr. Sam Winemiller, Open Knowledge & Research Impact Librarian.
