What Lyterati Does

With Lyterati GW faculty members can:

  • File a Faculty Annual Report.
  • Maintain an online Academic History, which can be used to generate a custom CV.  The non-confidential data in the Academic History can also be used by administrators to produce various reports (department, school, university).
  • Choose to share your teaching, research, scholarship and/or service electronically with other scholars and researchers within the GW University community.
  • Limit other faculty's ability to search on your data.

Lyterati and your Academic History

The Lyterati categories for Academic History are:

  • Background
  • Research
  • Teaching
  • Service
  • Awards and Honors

Lyterati and your Annual Report

The Annual Report is a strictly confidential document.

  • The Academic History and the Annual Report are two separate databases within Lyterati.
  • The Annual Report pulls from the Academic History database, but the data from questions labeled “Confidential” in the Annual Report never transfer to the Academic History database.
  • Lyterati automatically organizes this information depending upon the type of report requested. You can amend your Academic History at any time.

Confidentiality

The University is committed to maintaining the levels of confidentiality that are expected within a prized academic community. Access to confidential personnel and financial information is limited to authorized entities at GW. To prevent your academic history data from being searched by other faculty, you will need to go into your Academic History - Background Information - Personal Summary and switch the option to have others search your Academic History to NO. If you make this choice, it means that other faculty members looking for collaborators across common research interests will not be able to find you, and it is expected that you will not search for others.

Note

Do not include personally sensitive data such as date of birth, SSN, credit card information in your Academic History.
