3. UBC Library and cIRcle “IRs are an excellent way to illustrate universities' contributions to the public - who, after all, offer invaluable support to our institutions. As universities use IRs to control and share their output, scholarly communication and publishing are truly coming full circle.” – http://circle.ubc.ca
