Institutional Repositories are now being created to
manage, preserve, and maintain the library assets, intellectual
output, and histories of institutions in digital form.
The IR is being regarded by many, especially those who do
use an IR, as the hidden treasure of research output of an
institution. IRs are created by the organizations to
disseminate their institutional intellectual output to the irclientele through a single window. Having no a priori
knowledge of preference of users to publish in IRs, we
expect that more researchers, who are relatively less
established, are expected to deposit their work in IRs for
quick dissemination and comments of their work. Data
analysis of deposition of documents in IRs by Users is presented
in Table 6.
