- The Successful Repository
29 Giu 2006 , Customs House, Brisbane, Queensland (Australia) - Setting up an institutional repository is the easy part; keeping it going, in the long term, year after year, is hard. It's also not cheap. Most institutions now have a solid grasp of the theory of open access repositories, but what's the reality? What do they really cost? Can it be demonstrated that they give value for money? What are the successful business models? What are the compelling arguments in favour of building one that will attract ever-scarcer funds? How do we become important players in our institutions?
