What is ScholarWorks?
ScholarWorks@UNO, is an institutional repository of the research, scholarship, and creative work of the University of New Orleans. Using an online platform, the university's unique academic and artistic achievements are collected, preserved, and disseminated to a global audience of students and scholars free of charge.
If you are interested in contributing to ScholarWorks please provide Jennifer Jackson with the most recent copy of your CV. She will verify which articles can be uploaded to ScholarWorks after verifying copyright agreements (because of this not all articles can be uploaded). In most cases, either a pre-print or post-print of the article can be published.
