Surveys of Reporting Practices of Institutional Repositories

This dataset contains the summary results of two surveys, which gathered data about the reporting practices for institutional repositories (IR). The surveys were completed by library directors and IR managers, and questions were asked about strategic importance, content scope, and the methods and mechanisms libraries utilize to evaluate and report on IR use and impact.These surveys were conducted as part of a three-year research grant generously funded by the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) in 2014. "Measuring Up: Assessing Accuracy of Reported Use and Impact of Digital Repositories" was led by Montana State University, with contributions from the following partners: Association of Research Libraries; OCLC Research; and the University of New Mexico
