How can I decide between Create UMKC and OpenScholar for my site?

Answer

Create UMKC is a great option if you want to do things like sharing 

  • "Proof of concept sites for pending grant applications

  • Digital exhibits

  • Book supplements or companion websites

  • Expansive or interactive digital scholarship projects

  • Non-linear or multimedia-rich scholarly publications" (https://libguides.library.umkc.edu/dss/create-umkc)

But if you want a faculty or center profile site that showcases the best of your research, creativity, innovations, and teaching, OpenScholar is the UMKC option.
