Abby Smith, The Future of Shared Repositories, CLIR Issues, November-December, 2002. Excerpt: "To help librarians, faculty members, and funding agencies consider the promises of collaborating on repositories in today's new hybrid information landscape, CLIR has commissioned the Center for Research Libraries (CRL) to conduct a survey of current and planned shared repositories. The repositories will range from institutions that serve mainly as secondary storage to those that house collections of archival status under optimal conditions."

Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
