Providing a thorough review of the concept of the Institutional
Repository (IR) the book examines how they can be set up,
maintained and embedded into general institutional working
practice. Specific reference is made to capturing certain types of
research material such as E-Theses and E-Prints and what the issues
are with regard to obtaining the material, ensuring that all legal
grounds are covered and then storing the material in perpetuity.
General workflow and administrative processes that may come up
during the implementation and maintenance of an IR are discussed.
The authors notes that there are a number of different models that
have been adopted worldwide for IR management, and these are
discussed. Finally, a case study of the inception of the Edinburgh
Research Archive is provided which takes the user through the long
path from conception to completion of an IR, examining the highs
and lows of the process and offering advice for other implementers.
This allows the book the opportunity to introduce extensive
practical experience in unexpected areas such as mediated deposit.
