An institutional repository is a digital archive of intellectual works created by a university's faculty, researchers, and students. It provides open access to works with few barriers. Content includes pre-prints, reports, theses, audio/visual materials. Benefits include increased visibility, centralized storage, and long-term preservation of the institution's academic output. Challenges include costs, difficulties generating content, and rights management issues.
