INSTITUTIONAL REPOSITORIES: THE GREAT DEBATE

 

What is an institutional repository?  How do topics like scholarly
communication, copyright, institutional memory, digital libraries, metadata,
intellectual property, research impact, digital preservation, and Open
Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH) fit in the
concept and implementation of an institutional repository?

 

In the spirit of classical oration and political debate Dr. Helen Tibbo and
Kevin Smith, MLS, J.D. will square off on these topics with a duel of
dialog.
