Summary:
"DAEDALUS is a three-year project based at the University of Glasgow funded under the JISC Focus on Access to Institutional Resources (FAIR) Programme. The main focus of the project has been developing institutional repositories to hold content ranging from peer-reviewed published papers to theses and working papers...This article will detail some of the strategies we have adopted in gathering existing content for the institutional repositories we have developed at Glasgow...[and] will concentrate solely on published peer-reviewed journal articles, as this is the area which has proved most challenging in terms of persuading academics to give us their content, and also in relation to publishers' copyright agreements."
