1. Institutional Repositories and Research Support Bill Hubbard SHERPA Project Manager University of Nottingham

2. Libraries and research support what support do academics want ? what role can information services play ? what role does a repository play?

3. Users wanted... access to financial information access to funding and research opportunities support in working practices access to library services on-line

4. A virtual research environment offers personalised services syntheses access to information and services provides a supported working environment used for finding information used for disseminating information facilitates collaboration in new ways and across old boundaries

5. Institutional repositories Digital collections that preserve and provide access the the intellectual output of an institution.* encouraging wider use of open access information assets may contain a variety of digital objects –e-prints, –theses, –e-learning objects, –datasets * Raym Crow The case for institutional repositories: a SPARC position paper. 2002.

6. Not just storage provides core of an information management system opportunities for integration of research and teaching record of institutional output access to institutional authors work search services give access to other repositories a service to authors

7. Open Access for the researcher wide dissemination –papers more visible –cited more rapid dissemination ease of access cross-searchable value added services –hit counts on papers –personalised publications lists –citation analyses

17. Repository basis institutional repositories combined with location- specific or subject-based search services practical reasons –use institutional infrastructure –integration into work-flows and systems –support is close to academic users and contributors OAI-PMH allows a single gateway to search and access many repositories –subject-based portals or views –subject-based classification and search

18. Other benefits for the institution –facilitates use and re-use of the information assets –raises profile and prestige of institution –manages institutional information assets - RAE –long-term cost savings for the research community –frees up the communication process –avoids unnecessary duplication or overlap of work –facilitates new user-groups for research/ collaboration –levels the playing field for global research dissemination

19. Benefits for society in general publicly-funded research publicly available public understanding of science knowledge transfer: commercial; cultural research is a product of, and part of, our culture: if its possible for it to be free to all, then it should be.

20. Publisher reactions fear of reconstructing the journal prohibit use of publisher pdf impose new embargoes some cautious experimentation - but some author-charge models where the author still cannot use the article!

21. Problems with the current system limited access to research limited impact of research rising journal prices competition issues Big Deal threat to Learned Society publishers disengagement of academics... this is from an overview...

37. SHERPA - practical issues establishing an archive populating an archive copyright advocacy & changing working habits mounting material maintenance preservation concerns...

38. Academic concerns subject base more natural ? –institutional infrastructure, view by subject quality control ? –peer-review clearly labelled plagiarism –old problem - and easier to detect I already have my papers on my website... –unstructured for RAE, access, search, preservation conflict with traditional journal publication –two separate things –repositories are supplementary

39. Administrator concerns setting up the repository –technical solutions populating the repository and advocacy maintenance costs preservation service models and costs –author-deposition –mediated-deposition –mixed economies

40. Barriers to adoption copyright restrictions –approx. 93% (of Nottinghams) journals allow their authors to archive cultural barriers to adoption authors are willing to use repositories –81% would deposit willingly if required to do so deposition policies are key

41. Policy development House of Commons Science and Technology Committee NIH - watered down to a request with a 12 month delay... delay does not equal embargo, but... Wellcome Trust - a requirement, but a 6 month delay RCUK Position Statement - draft requires deposition but does not specify any time for deposition RAE may contribute to the debate...

42. Futures policies for deposition will help establish repositories and their use advocacy, search and value-added services will embed repositories into the research process the organisation of research will embed repositories into institutional services and administration repositories, and their use, will grow

43. Progress...
