From The Library
The UMass Lowell Library Launches UMass Lowell Research, Archives, and Data (UML RAD)
Explore RAD to preserve your research and scholarship.
UML RAD (UMass Lowell Research, Archives, and Data) is a repository founded by the UMass Lowell (UML) Library to provide faculty and other UML community members with a permanent place to share their academic work and research data.
The University Library’s goal is to preserve, share, and celebrate the important scholarship created by the UML community. UML RAD enables scholarly output (such as papers, research data, conference presentations, images, and more) to be publicly accessible, discoverable, citable, and backed by a preservation process that will fulfill data management and sharing requirements set by grant funding agencies.
This repository also serves as UML Center for Lowell History’s digital archive, where researchers can view a wide variety of historical items from University and Lowell-related collections.
