Georgia Southern Commons

Campus Publications

Georgia Southern Commons is proud to host a vast collection of University publications from every corner of campus. GS Commons provides a lasting archive of the University's official documents, marketing and promotional materials, student publications, and campus news.

Examples include:

• University's official news feed, the Newsroom
• Campus-wide MyNews emails
• Facilities Forum archive
• Eagle Executive Magazine archive
• Archive of the official student newspaper, The George-Anne
• Georgia Southern University policies collection
• Official documents of the Faculty Senate

The GS Commons Team actively monitors and collects campus publications as they become publicly available. Any campus stakeholders interested in hosting documents or publications not currently available in Georgia Southern Commons are invited to contact the GS Commons Team for an initial consultation.

Copyright and Reuse Licensing Considerations for Campus Publications

In most cases, campus publications are "works for hire" and can be archived and distributed without constraint via Georgia Southern Commons. Where questions of copyright arise, the GS Commons Team will help to develop copyright and reuse licensing that fits the collection. We are happy to review copyright and reuse policies at any time with collection stakeholders.

Removing or Modifying Works in Georgia Southern Commons

The GS Libraries make every effort to ensure that all works submitted to GS Commons are archived and disseminated in accordance with United States copyright law, University policy, and the wishes of content creators. The GS Commons Team does not have the authority to alter the content of any works published in the institutional repository. 

If for any reason you believe that a work included in GS Commons should be removed or modified, please contact the GS Commons Team at digitalcommons@georgiasouthern.edu.  A member of the Team will contact you as soon as possible during regular business hours.
