What is an institutional repository
  • A university-based institutional repository is
    a set of services that a university offers to the
    members of its community for the management and
    dissemination of digital materials created by the
    institution and its community members. It is most
    essentially an organizational commitment to the
    stewardship of these digital materials, including
    long-term preservation where appropriate, as well
    as organization and access or distribution.Clif
    ford A. Lynch, "Institutional Repositories
    Essential Infrastructure for Scholarship in the
    Digital Age" ARL, no. 226 (February 2003) 1-7.
