20-21 LTS Annual Report

Challenges for 2022-2023: How will we best meet faculty and student demand for new scholarly material, research software, and computing power? How do we enhance integrations of our library system with other information systems at Lehigh? What are the next steps for the Data Center at Lehigh, now that the existing center is nearing capacity? DIGITAL SCHOLARSHIP CITL's Digital Scholarship Team consulted on and supported audio/video, geospatial and data visualization assignments, and websites for 7 faculty research projects. Continued support of Tom Hammond's 4-year NSF grant, Collaborative Research: Expanding Socio-Environmental Science Investigations with Geospatial Technologies in High Schools, now entering year two, with all three collaborative universities (Lehigh, Texas Christian, and Washington State) working with their respective high schools. Conducted workshops on Programming in R— Introduction to Programming in R, Data Visualization with R, and Shiny Apps with R—drawing over 50 attendees. Continued support of Ed Whitley’s Vault at Pfaff’s project, including advising and supporting a graduate student researcher in developing new content and the addition of new features for the site. Created 3D and 2D animations for a video production to assist the Chemistry Department’s Kai Landskron and his team to promote a prototype for a new type of fuel cell. In collaboration with Suzanne Edwards and Mary Foltz, continued support of Gloria Naylor Archive project, including consultation on the website and creation of a customized interface for researchers. HEALTH DATA WAREHOUSE LTS is advising on the creation of a new Health Data Warehouse, a collaboration between Lehigh University’s College of Health and College of Business, that will serve as an invaluable resource for faculty and students engaged in health research across the university. Through partnerships with entities in industry, government, nonprofits, and academia in the worlds of health and health care, the Health Data Warehouse will build a substantial repository of data and then curate the data to make it useful and accessible for research.
