Repositories, the institution

Institutional repositories serve as crucial platforms to disseminate and showcase the outputs of academic institutions. They enhance visibility and accessibility of research, influencing developments and fostering collaboration. By curating digital outputs and providing free access, repositories not only support research assessment but also promote teaching and learning materials. They play a vital role in attracting prospective staff and students, as well as facilitating the management of research activities. Overall, these repositories aim to maximize the impact of institutional knowledge on a global scale.
