ABC's of Developing an Institutional Repository Program on Campus

Bepress has created a webinar series for LOUIS members to help you get started planning for an IR program on your campus (no matter what stage you are in the process). The webinar series is designed to share high-level strategies based upon the Digital Commons community and bepress staff best practices. You will receive information and resources to assist you in learning about each topic at a deeper level during each session.

Please join Patti French, Digital Commons Account Manager to learn about the ABC's of an Institutional Repository by registering via the links below for each part. Notice there are two separate days per part to accommodate as many of your schedules as possible. A certificate of completion will be given to anyone who attends all three sessions in its entirety and completes a post- webinar survey.
