Survey: The International Use and Impact of Institutional Repositories on Parent Academic Institutions

[Forwarded from the SPARC OA Forum] “If you are an administrator of a U.S. academic institutional repository or supervise the management of an U.S. academic institutional repository, please consider filling out this short 15-question survey. This survey is part of a study examining the international usage and impact that institutional repositories might have on their academic parent institutions. We are attempting to determine the scope of the international use of IR resources as well as study other possible implications that might be a result of IR international traffic. Survey: This survey has been approved by Valparaiso University's IRB and responses will be anonymous. This survey will remain open until June 15, 2012. If you have any suggestions or questions, please feel free to ask either of us. Thank you for your participation and help. [1] Jonathan Bull
