How can an institution facilitate the filling of its Eprint Archives?
(1) Install OAI-compliant Eprint Archives . (2) Adopt a university-wide policy that all faculty maintain and update a standardised online curriculum vitae (CV) for institutional record-keeping and annual performance review. See the Institutional Archives Self-Archiving Policy Registry and List (3) Mandate that the full digital text of all refereed publications should be deposited in the Institution’s OA Repository and linked to their entry in the author’s online CV. (Make it clear to all faculty how self-archiving is in the interest of their own research and standing , maximizing the visibility, accessibility and impact of their work.) (4) Offer trained digital librarian help in showing faculty how to self-archive their papers in their own university Eprint Archive (it is very easy). (5) Offer trained digital librarian help in doing “proxy” self-archiving, on behalf of any authors who feel that they are personally unable (too busy or technically incapable) to self-archive for themselve
