Includes bibliographical references. The concepts of open access and scholarly publishing are still gaining momentum in Africa, especially South Africa. Increasingly, institutional repositories are being planned and developed by universities throughout the world especially in the first world countries, which have taken the lead. Institutional repositories have developed because of changes in scholarly communication where journal prices are high and libraries are finding it difficult to subscribe to them. Communication technology in the form of the internet brought a solution to the problem. Researchers, authors and libraries now advocate for the open access model of scholarly communication. This study explores the developments associated with the establishment and implementation of an Institutional Repository at UCT. 2015-01-11T13:26:37Z 2015-01-11T13:26:37Z 2012 Master Thesis Masters MPhil http://hdl.handle.net/11427/12077 eng application/pdf Library and Information Studies Centre (LISC) University of Cape Town |
