Institutional Repositories (IRs) are a visible manifestation of the emerging importance of
Knowledge Management (KM) in higher education. Paradoxically, “scholarly respect for
knowledge and a desire to ensure academic freedom make most institutions reluctant to
manage knowledge of any sort”. This paper explains the concept of Institutional Repository
(IR) and brings out the definitional analysis of IR definitions. Briefly describes the initiatives
taken towards building IRs. States the logical Principles of IR and emphasizes its
significance in Academic and Research Institutions. Further highlights the benefits in
developing IRs. Explains the availability of free and fee software in the design and
development of IRs and enumerates features of each software. Finally urges to adopt
relevant standards to achieve globalization and access of IRs by universal community. |
