Why get into this business anyway? Scope and nature of repository Implementation (setting the stage) Operations (nuts and bolts) Assessment Going public (launch) Outreach & Marketing The Path to an Institutional Repository Points to Consider

Why get into this business anyway? Overriding Theme Publicize, disseminate, archive campus scholarship Interested readers can learn about and keep up-to-date with scholarship from anywhere in the world Improve visibility of academic research and scholarly activity

Motivating Factors Set information free Capture ephemeral content Specific desire of a campus unit Highlight student scholarship Make teaching materials available Library opportunity Need for “trustworthy” archive Provide publishing platform Push from campus leadership Scholars’ document management system Dovetail with other efforts

Campus Climate Centralized vs. decentralized Funding structure Top-down vs. grassroots Relationship between: –Campus archives –Academic computing –Library Champions (within and outside of library) Subject Liaisons

Scope and Nature of Repository SHORT TERM –Where to start? –Pilot phase Gain understanding of system Seed the repository LONG TERM –Expand across campus –Cooperation/links with other repositories

Penn Pilot School of Engineering & Applied Science (SEAS) interested in raising its profile Feature their “best” work Subject liaison support Support from School’s leadership Collaboration between SEAS and Library

Implementation (Setting the Stage) Oversight Infrastructure/platform Policies Human & financial resources

Operations (Nuts and Bolts) Content file types and metadata Procedures –for administrators, authors, and their agents Getting content Seeding the repository
