How one leading publisher is collaborating with an institutional repository Institutional repositories and their impact on publishing Institutional repositories-web-based, institution-focused archives of scholarly content-have been receiving increasing attention recently. They are seen by some advocates of self-archiving as a more promising route to open access than subject-based archives, although the latter have been very successful in a few disciplines. Their contents, which are generally freely available, can include journal article eprints (both preprints and postprints), theses and dissertations, technical reports, working papers and other grey literature, datasets and other digital material. A number of significant developments, such as the launch of MIT's DSpace in the autumn of 2002, as well as the University of California's eScholarship and the growth of repositories based on the University of Southampton's EPrint software, have brought the issue of institutional repositories increasingly to the fore. Who should attend This conference is essential for those potentially affected by the deployment of institutional repositories: Publishers, especially in journal and academic publishing; Librarians, academics and other HE/FE staff involved in setting up and managing repositories; and Senior university/college administrators interested in the policy implications of institutional repositories.
