Rocky Vista University is a health sciences university with campuses in Colorado, Utah, and Montana. The new repository, named Elevate, will support the University’s growing research community by preserving scholarly materials, such as the University's in-house journal, journal articles, and research posters. Furthermore, Elevate works with departments across campus to create collections (e.g., Policy Repository) and preserve materials that are essential to the mission of Rocky Vista University.

The Elevate Steering Committee selected TIND after evaluating numerous repository vendors. We selected TIND because of its modern user interface, including unique customization options that met our community's needs, author profiles, embedded forms and workflows, DOI minting, and strong customer support,” said Joseph H. Richard III, MLIS, Technology & Repository Librarian at Rocky Vista University.

While a few legacy documents will be migrated, the repository will primarily grow organically as RVU builds a foundation for long-term preservation and access supported by TIND’s easy-to-use submission tools, flexible collection setup, and hands-on support during setup and migration.
