What is this?
The 4CeeD uploader is a light weight web tool used to upload scientific data files and metadata descriptors to a local repository.

Why use this? 
The 4CeeD uploader and curator replace outdated and inefficient methodologies used in many laboratories for data capture and storage.

How can the 4CeeD Uploader help me?

• Data gets stored to local cloud storage.
• Support for automating repetitive tasks.
• Use templates for reliable user defined meta data entry.

How can the 4CeeD Curator help me?

• All accessible data can be downloaded with its data-model hierarchy preserved.
• Extractors pull descriptive metadata out of files and instrument logs for analysis and discovery.
• Get reliable calibration data and how to reference it.
• Share your data and use powerful free-text and faceted search for comparisons.
• Broad set of customizable access control rules.

Active Directory provides University-wide infrastructure to authenticate customers and authorize them to access certain resources, as well as manage accounts, groups, computers, and devices. 

Campus Service Monitoring provides device, service, and metric monitoring, alerting, and reporting.  

The Central Registry is a collection of individual and group University-oriented online identities for customers at the Urbana campus. The Central Registry allows IT professionals to create and update information about an individual or non-person entity.

The CI-KNOW system mines the knowledge network associated with research communities' use of cyberinfrastructure tools, using provenance information and relational metadata from a metadata store through Tupelo 2 to create context-specific recommendations for CyberCollaboratory users. A network navigation portlet allows users to locate colleagues, documents, data or analytic tools in the knowledge network visually and to explore their networks. An internal auditing portal offers administrators diagnostics for assessing the growth and health of the entire knowledge network.

The Chemistry library offers many Chemistry related databases and journals.

From their site: "Data Planet publishes statistical datasets that are sourced from a wide range of public and private organizations. We call Data Planet an “aggregation” of datasets – a collection of datasets served up together. It’s the same concept as the big journal databases available through your library that bring together journals from different publishers – we do something similar but with statistical datasets as the content."

By visiting Data Planet through the University Library proxy URL, you'll receive access to more datasets.

The depository for all technical reports produced by the College of Engineering. The Center generally defines a technical report as any report that has not been published elsewhere in its entirety. The EDC collection is housed at the lower level of the Grainger Engineering Library Information Center. The collection consists of over 16,000 titles. They comprise primarily of 23 departmental series. The collection includes reports written for governmental and industrial projects, theses written as technical reports, and some reprints of journal articles.
