The Repositories Support Project
Jackie Wickham · Nottingham ePrints (University of Nottingham) · 2012
Those of us who don't work in academic institutions might find repositories a bit of an unknown entity.In this issue we hope to solve your dilemma -we give you everything you always wanted to know about repositories but were afraid to ask.We start with articles by Gareth Johnson and Jackie Wickham that provide some background information, and follow up with more personal articles from a variety of practitioners that give a flavour of what it's like managing a repository, dealing with classification problems, and moving from cataloguing into repository management.We hope these will answer most of your questions.Finally, we include a review of a seminar and a book review.
