  9. Repositories are spreading because . . . • Give easy access • Give rapid access • Give long-term access • Increase readership and use of material • They offer advantages to academics • They offer advantages to institutions • They offer advantages to research funders • They offer new ways for information to be linked and used

  10. National development • Research-led universities adopting research repositories • extension with eTheses, data-sets, multimedia, etc • Policies for development • from research funders • from institutions • from departments • National perspective for services • of repositories, repository holdings • for search and analysis of contents • for UK research on the global stage

  11. Repository content • Theses • Dissertations • Royalty publications • Conference papers • Conference organisation • Grey literature • Preprints • Postprints • Datasets • Learning objects • Videos • Sound files • linkage between these objects

  12. Repository use • Access to material • Citation analysis • Overlay journals • Review projects • Evidence based work • Data-mining • Cross-institutional research group virtual research environments • RAE-like submissions, activities and management • Archival storage • “Shop-windows” • Facilitate industrial links • Career-long personalised work spaces

  13. Search • Google • Google Scholar • MSN Search • Yahoo • Various commercial services and initiatives • Oaister • ePrints.UK • EEVL Xtra • DART for European eTheses • EThOS for UK eTheses

  14. Futures • 10 years - what changes are coming down the track and what responses are needed? • What is inside your control and what is outside? • Irrespective of repositories, author-side charges, open access - what will develop? • Developments in the web and ICT alone will produce substantial change . . . • Some themes . . .

  15. Journals • Governments will not loosen the purse strings • Subscriptions per journal will continue to decline • Continued agglomeration of publishing concerns • Smaller publishers will continue to be squeezed and have to react • The big and the nimble will survive • Editorial and peer-review process will be technologically mediated • Unbundling of products, processes and services - with a global marketplace for service provision

  16. Academics and IT • Increasing connectivity • Increasing demand for rapid, permanent access, everywhere • Increasing demand for more information • Increasing demand for free access • Information per se will be more freely available and the links between information will become the valued commodity

  17. Research • Full Economic Costing and Value For Money • Public awareness and availability • Raised awareness of IPR issues • Institutions being pressured to capitalise on their assets • Cross-disciplinary research • Synthesis - evidence based research - data mining • Emergence of global standards - quality control? - with a global marketplace for service provision

  18. What will happen? • Who knows? But whatever happens - • If definitive versions are of value to research work (and they are) • then they will be used • If journals are of value to research work (and they are) • then they will be used • If publishers are of value to research work (and they are) • then they will be used • If learned societies are of value to research work (and they are) • then they will be used • If repositories of work are of value to research work (and they are) • then they will be used
