Omeka S Module – AnyCloud
2019–Present
Creating a module for the open source digital asset management system Omeka S to allow libraries to store their content on the platform of their choosing: the server the system is installed on or their choice of cloud services (Amazon S3, Microsoft Azure Storage, Google Cloud Storage, DigitalOcean Spaces, Wasabi Cloud Storage, Scaleway Object Storage, Rackspace Files, or Dropbox).
Unofficial Scopus PHP SDK
2017–Present
Scopus is an abstract and citation database created by Elsevier. It incorporates important bibliometric data about publications (journal articles, books, and other published materials) to help researchers find high-quality research. It is also used to help researchers determine the relative strength of the publications they wish to submit manuscripts and to track various measures of quality of their existing publications.
This unofficial PHP SDK makes it easy for institutions to integrate the quality metrics into their websites, personal vitae, and institutional repositories. As of 6 May 2025, this has been used in at least 214 projects at various institutions.
Journal Assessment Tool
2009–2015
I created a database that allows us to determine the number of places we have access to all our journals. We can see overlap and cancel subscriptions without losing access to any content. I have built, rebuilt, and redesigned the system multiple times since 2008 and it is an ongoing project that requires maintenance and time to find the best data available. I presented this at the Electronic Resources and Libraries Conference and have received requests from multiple libraries to learn more about the system.
