Upgrade to Prism
We are excited to announce that Prism will replace DigitalHub in early 2023 as the institutional repository for Northwestern University, Feinberg School of Medicine. This upgrade improves user experience and provides more functionality. We will provide more details regarding dates as the migration approaches.
All of your materials will be migrated from DigitalHub to Prism with no extra effort from you. The Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) will not change and are not affected by this transition. Please note that DigitalHub-specific URLs will change. However, we will provide an automatic re-direct from a DigitalHub-specific URL to its corresponding URL in Prism. DigitalHub will continue to be available online and viewable but will not allow new uploads after the migration to Prism.
Once Prism is ready, consider signing up for a class on Prism. You can also schedule a training for your lab, program, department, institute or center (email: prism@northwestern.edu).
