Description/Abstract

An Institutional Repository may o�er a .set of services. to its local users, supporting the publication of research. More importantly, the repository also forms a key component in the global scholarly communications environment. In this presentation we investigate the role of the repository on a global scale by witnessing the e�ects on a changing economy and also show how worldwide collaboration networks can be predicted using the strong social links found in repository metadata.
