[Dspace-general] shining stars anyone?

[Catherine Jannik]

Ingrid,
We have a professor here at Georgia Tech who is an enthusiastic 
self-submitter (one of the few we have) who links from his bio at the 
College of Management http://mgt.gatech.edu/directory/ferguson.html to 
our DSpace installation, SMARTech.  If you go to the link above and 
chose "Access and view Dr. Ferguson's recent publications and working 
papers" under Related Links, you will be taken to his work in SMARTech.
