Event Description:

COAPI Community Call: The Institutional Repository in 2020

 

While maintaining an institutional repository (IR) is now an established university library service, both the origin stories and purposes of our repositories vary greatly. Is it time to re-evaluate the IR and its purpose?

 

Given the staff, time, and technical resources needed to support an IR, are we getting sufficient return on our investment? How do we even analyze our IRs to determine ROI? Do we need to redefine the purpose of our IRs? How will our IRs change over the next decade, whether or not we redefine the purpose? How will ETD and OA policies or the collections as data movement influence those changes?

 

Please join us on Wednesday, January 22nd, at 2:00 PM ET for a COAPI Community Call to investigate the big questions around our IRs. Setting the stage will be Ellen Dubinsky, Scholarly Communications Librarian, University of Arizona, and Kathleen Shearer, Executive Director, Confederation of Open Access Repositories (COAR).
