Hi Richard: The MSU Office of Planning & Budgets (OPB) <http://opbweb.opb.msu.edu/> maintains a system called CLIFMS <http://ntweb1.ais.msu.edu/clifms/> which contains the University's central data collection instruments related to faculty work (the Faculty Effort Form and Professional Accomplishment Form). The data that these form take in is numbers and percentages, not titles of articles or books published, etc. Many different units on campus develop their own paper forms to collect a wide range of data from faculty and then have support staff enter it into the various appropriate university forms. You should consider contacting OPB for further information about these systems and maybe to keep them abreast of your efforts as well. For my own part, my office (University Outreach) also maintains a form in CLIFMS to collect data about noncredit instructional programs carried out by faculty and academic staff. I'd be happy to talk with you about that, if it is of interest. Take Care, Burt Bargerstock Burton A.

Does anyone know if this already exist at a university level? Has anyone done this themselves for their college? Any input, communication, or suggestions would be very helpful.
