Approaches to transition to ERNs
- Start with a free platform before making a final decision
- Newly established or relocated research groups can begin all students at one time on an ERN platform
- Groups with students at a variety of levels should transition in a stepwise process
- Students who will publish or graduate soon should complete their work in a paper notebook
- New or temporary undergraduate students can easily use ERNs for short-term projects
- Have one student pilot it and still keep a paper notebook
- Ask one student to manage an ERN for all protocols and information that has been published
- Ask the Chemistry Librarian to evaluate your group's workflows and suggest an ERN platform
