How to Add Faculty Publications to Knowledge Exchange
1. From the Library’s main page (southern.edu/library), under "Research and Tools", Select Knowledge Exchange.
2. In the right column, under “Author Corner”, click "Submit Research”.
3. Locate your department or community and click the series that is relevant to you. For example, if you are a faculty member in the English Department, locate English and then click on Faculty Works.
4. Create an account or log in if you already have one. Please use your SAU email to create the account.
5. Once you have created an account or logged in, you will be taken to the submission page.
6. Fill out the requested information and upload your file.
a. If your submission was previously published, note this in the comments section. We will communicate with the publisher prior to publishing the work within the repository.
b. If you don't provide a recommended citation, that's ok; one will be provided for you.
c. Documents formatted as TXT, DOC, DOCX, and non-scanned PDF files can be uploaded as-is. Documents that were scanned to JPG, TIF, or PDF need to go through the optical character recognition (OCR) process prior to uploading in order to make their contents searchable.
d. Digital files that are not in PDF format (such as Excel or PowerPoint) can only be uploaded in the “Additional Files” section on the bottom of the “Submit Research” form. If uploaded to the regular “Upload File” part of the form, these files will be shown as a citation only and will not be downloadable by the public.
7. Click “Submit”. Congratulations! You’re done!
8. Your article will be visible in Knowledge Exchange in 48-72 hours.
