Supporting University Resilience During the Pandemic through VIVO, the Open-Source Research Information Management System · December 2021 Other Coalition for Networked Information (CNI), Washington, DC The pandemic represented a significant challenge to research universities and their faculty. Libraries often turned to digital tools to support faculty researchers as they quickly pivoted to remote work. In this project briefing, we will highlight the role of research information management (RIM) systems at Duke University and Texas A&M to support faculty researchers and the universities during the pandemic. Our systems, Scholars@Duke and Scholars@TAMU, are powered by VIVO, the open source RIM system supported by Lyrasis.
