OER for research repositories managers Nick Sheppard Repository Developer, Leeds Metropolitan University UKCoRR (Technical Officer) n.e.sheppard@leedsmet.ac.uk Blogs: http://repositorynews.wordpress.com/ http://ukcorr.org/activity/blog/ @mrnick @ukcorr Open Access Research and Open Educational Resources – two very different animals?

2. a)Does your Institutional Repository actively manage material other than textual research outputs? b)Does your institution run more than one repository?

6. JISC Repositories Start-up and Enhancement (2007) Prioritised set of needs Broad range of material Commercial solution (intraLibrary) SCORM / IMS –Adult LearningAdult Learning Multiple Application Profiles Flexible organisational structure Unicycle - phase 1 ukoer project (2009) “Blended” repository –http://repository.leedsmet.ac.uk/main/index.phphttp://repository.leedsmet.ac.uk/main/index.php Two publicly accessible collections –Research (OA full text) –OER –Links between collections –ALPS Common Competency Map – CommunicationALPS Common Competency Map – Communication The Leeds Met repository

7. What are others doing? ukoer - not prescriptive around technology Licensing (Creative Commons) Local release and via Jorum Majority of projects did not use formal repositories 3 rd party web 2.0 style platforms RSS as bulk upload solution Other repository solutions –Xpert* –Equella (Oxford Brookes, Coventry, Royal Holloway) –Hydra (Hull and partners – Fedora based) –EdShare (EPrints based) –HumBox (EPrints based)

8. Do looks matter? OA research repositories – 80% traffic from Google People do not typically browse Are OER repositories different? Non-textual, often visual Greater importance of user communities? Web 2.0 platforms Jorum EdShare / HumBox Kultivate plug-in for EPrints UAL - http://ualresearchonline.arts.ac.uk/ http://ualresearchonline.arts.ac.uk/
