PROJECT PROFILE: CEEPR WORKING PAPERS
Compiler: Craig Thomas, Institute Archives
Date: 7/29/2008; revised 9/4/2008
BIBLIOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
Series Title: CEEPR Working Papers
Number of issues published: 249
Years: 1990-present
Publisher: Center for Energy and Environmental Policy Research (CEEPR)
Note: The Center began as the Center for Energy Policy Research (CEPR) in 1990; in 1992 it
was renamed CEEPR. Barton records trace two separate, but linked series: CEPR
Working Papers (1990-1992) and CEEPR Working Papers (1992-present). However,
CEEPR (and its website) treat the papers as a single series with uninterrupted
enumeration.

5. Sketch of project plan
• claim missing issues for Archives collection
• have Pubs Cataloger create missing Barton records
• download PDFs from CEEPR to Libraries servers
• gather print issues from Dewey, CEEPR, and Archives for digitization
• have Preservation Services disbind print issues
• have Document Services scan; upload PDFs to Libraries server
• have Preservation Services rebind CEEPR and Archives copies; discard Dewey copies
• return rebound issues to CEEPR and Archives
• have Tech Ops configure batch ingest scripts
• have Tech Ops ingest CEEPR content into DSpace (including crosswalk of Barton MARC
records to DSpace qualified Dublin Core)
• perform quality-control checks
• follow up: train Sharmila Ganguly (CEEPR Admin. Asst.) to use item-submission interface
for future DSpace deposits
