Repositories vs. Quasitories, or Much Ado About Next To Nothing

"Richard Poynder notes that 17 years on, Institutional Repositories (IRs) are still half-empty of their target content: peer-reviewed research journal articles.

The reason is that researchers' institutions and funders still have not got their heads around the right deposit mandates."
