CAUL: Research Publications Repository Survey Report 2017

CAUL has conducted an annual survey of research publication repositories (RPR) since 2009. The results of these surveys provide a valuable picture of repository development and management over time and increasingly the information is of interest not only to CAUL members but to other organisations including government departments and research granting agencies such as the Australian Research Council. For a variety of reasons, the RPR survey was not conducted in 2015 and 2016. This current survey was conducted between 12 May and 9 June 2017. Responses were received from all eight New Zealand university libraries. Of the Australian university libraries, 3 did not respond and 2 provided more than one response, giving a total of 47 responses to the survey.
