Please Register All OA Institutional Archives



*Apologies for cross-posting*

Tim Brody has created a Registry of Institutional OA Archives that lists
the known archives by Country, Type, and Software (Eprints, Dspace, or
other), harvested from celestial.

    http://archives.eprints.org/eprints.php?action=browse

It also displays the all-important graph of the number of items in each
archive, and tracks the growth of each archive across time.

But there are more OA Archives out there!  Please register yours, or any
you know of at:

    http://archives.eprints.org/eprints.php?action=add

Graphs charting the growth of total number of archives and total number of
archive items are also available:

    http://archives.eprints.org/eprints.php?action=analysis

If you want your archive counted, please register it!

All 146 registered archives can be viewed, or they can be browsed by
Country, Archive Type, or Archive Software.

(Note that the category "Undefined" among countries -- with 59 archives in
it! -- occurs because these archives were harvested before the Registry
was created, and the country data was not explicit. These 59 archives will
be hand-reclassified. All new archives will have the country tag at
registration.)

Suggestions and corrections are welcome:
