Institutional Repository (Cyborg-IR)

What is an Institutional Repository?

An Institutional Repository (IR) is a digital archive that collects, preserves, and disseminates the intellectual output of an educational institution. This repository serves as a central hub for storing academic materials such as research papers, dissertations, lecture notes, conference proceedings, and other valuable resources produced by faculty, students, and staff. It ensures easy access, enhances visibility, and contributes to the institution’s knowledge-sharing ecosystem. By facilitating organized, secure storage of academic work, an IR strengthens an institution’s commitment to academic excellence and innovation.

MAIN PURPOSE OF AN INSTITUTIONAL REPOSITORY IS:

A single location to collect the content.

To provide global access for an institution’s scholarly research.

After self-archiving provide open access to institutional research output.

Unpublished institutional digital assets or other literature which can be easily lost can be also stored and preserve.

Cyborg-ERP can help University/College to streamline the Institutional Repository like collecting, preserving, and disseminating digital copies of the intellectual output of an institution.
