Description
For many years, the Zucker School of Medicine and Northwell Health System has held Academic Days. These highly attended in-person events showcase the scholarly work of our many graduate and undergraduate academic trainee programs. Due to COVID-19, this event was required to be fully online in both 2020 and 2021. The library has partnered with the Academic Day Committee to create an online showcase of posters and abstracts using the School of Medicine’s Bepress repository to compliment the live Academic Day Zoom events. We will discuss the creation of the online collection, addressing faculty concerns over security, the expansion of the project to include resident research days at several of our hospitals, and potential future uses for the collection.
