Have you heard the news? Iowa Research Online (IRO) is new and improved! Staff at the University of Iowa Libraries have been hard at work on a new interface that goes way beyond the traditional institutional repository.
We’re the first institution in the world to go live with Esploro from Ex Libris, a research information management solution. This cutting-edge technology automatically captures the latest works by UI authors and brings it to your fingertips.
IRO collects and showcases the innovative research, scholarship, and creative work produced by the university’s talented faculty, students, and staff. Its purpose is to foster discovery and collaboration as well as demonstrate the impact of teaching and learning in Iowa and beyond.
You can use IRO to:
- Get access to the latest UI scholarship on any topic you can imagine.
- Browse research units to see what UI colleges, departments, and research centers are up to.
- Find experts and potential collaborators.
- Find dissertations and theses by UI graduates.
- Find Open Access content that’s freely available to everyone, everywhere, with no paywalls.
IRO is fully supported by the UI Libraries. Learn more About Iowa Research Online and contact us if you have questions or need assistance.
