Report of the Subject and Institutional Repositories Interactions Study

, , , and .
(2008)

Abstract

This report was commissioned by JISC to produce a set of practical recommendations for steps that can be taken to improve the interactions between institutional and subject repositories in the UK. For practical reasons, the report was concerned exclusively with scholarly articles at their various stages of existence, although many of the report’s recommendations are capable of a more general application. We reviewed the history of the development of repositories in the UK, and analysed the current repository landscape, primarily through seeking the views of key stakeholders: repository managers, funders and other parties involved or interested in repository development. Metrical data were gathered from published sources and by means of a survey of institutional repository managers.
