 

Knowledge Bank Submission Guidelines:
Doctor of Nursing Practice

Overview  

This document will guide you through submission of your work to The Ohio State University Knowledge Bank, a repository in which your work will be available to anyone on the Web, retrievable through commercial search engines such as Google, and preserved in perpetuity.

Once your work has been archived, you will receive a permanent Web address in the form http://hdl.handle.net/1234/99 that will always lead you to your work in the Knowledge Bank, so keep it handy!

Note: As a repository for digital assets, OSU's Knowledge Bank acts as a permanent archive. All items submitted remain as is at the time of submission, just as books once published remain in the form in which they were printed. PDF files once placed in the Knowledge Bank will not be modified.

What You Will Need

Before submitting your item to the Knowledge Bank (KB), make sure you have everything you need:

  • Most importantly, make sure you have a PDF version of your work (on the hard-drive of the computer you are using or on a flash-drive, CD, etc.).

    Note: The filename of your PDF must be limited to characters (a-Z), numerals (0-9), underscores (_) , and hyphens (-) only. Spaces and special characters — such as [ , ] , ( , ) , ! , é , and ü — can prevent access to your submission via the Web once it is in the Knowledge Bank. Examples of properly named PDFs include: name_project.pdf, final_paper.pdf, NameNursingProjectPaper.pdf, etc. Also, please remember that the filename of your PDF will be visible to the general public.

  • You will also need to be authorized to submit to the appropriate collection (steps 2 and 3 of the instructions).

Once you have what you need, the submission process just takes a few steps, which the rest of this page will walk you through. If you have questions at any point, please contact Knowledge Bank staff at libkbhelp@lists.osu.edu. We may not be able to answer your question right away, but we will get back to you as soon as possible. And remember, you can save your work and return to it at any time.
