What are the benefits of an institutional repository?
An institutional repository benefits the institution, the researcher and anyone interested in scholarly outputs. From an institutional perspective it provides a record of scholarly activity taking place within the university. For a researcher, it creates stable and reliable records of your work, managed and stored in ways which meet international technical standards. Each item in the repository has a unique Internet address (called a Handle) and it can be found easily on major search engines. And finally, increased access to scholarly knowledge is a benefit to all.
