In preparation for the Berlin 3 international meeting on implementing 
institutional Open Access Provision Policy in February in Southampton
    http://www.eprints.org/berlin3/program.html

it would be a great help if all institutions that already have OA 
Archives would register them in the Registry of Institutional OA Archives

    Current listing of OA Archives Registry (250 archives)
    http://archives.eprints.org/index.php?action=browse

    To register your own institutional OA archive(s) 
    http://archives.eprints.org/index.php?action=add

This Registry will then chart the growth of your archive. (Please
make sure your metadata are picked up by http://celestial.eprints.org/)
    http://archives.eprints.org/index.php?page=all

Up-to-date time charts on the growth of OA Archives and their contents
worldwide will provide an incentive to further instutions to create
their own.

If your institution (or department) also has an OA Provision
(Self-Archiving) Policy, please register it in the Registry of
Institutional OA Policies.

    Current listing of OA Policy Registry (9 institutions):
    http://www.eprints.org/signup/fulllist.php

    To register your own institutional OA provision policy:
    http://www.eprints.org/signup/sign.php

Policies (9 registered so far) are even more important than archives (250
registered so far) in order to ensure that the archives fill rapidly and
reliably with their institution's research article output.
