Institutional Repositories… publish and be damned? Stephanie Taylor, UKOLN
Institutional repositories were initially proposed as a way for institutions to showcase and share research and teaching materials. While there was early interest, implementation was slow and not all faculty were enthusiastic contributors. When web managers became involved, repositories seemed outdated compared to web 2.0 tools. However, repositories are not meant to replace all sharing options but are one part of changing publishing models by providing open access to institutional outputs. Moving forward, repositories should be viewed as one piece of an institution's online presence and integrated with other systems and tools, both old and new.
