Good afternoon,


This is a final invitation to participate in a research study examining the creation and maintenance of institutional repositories (IR) in Canada. The purpose of this research is to understand how IR platforms, both proprietary and open source, are implemented and maintained at varying sizes of institutions. If you work with an institutional repository at a post-secondary institution, please consider participating in this survey; it will take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete. Thank you to everyone who has already participated!


You will find a link to the survey here: Survey of Canadian Institutional Repositories<http://surveys.msvu.ca/index.php?r=survey/index&sid=184777&lang=en>. The survey is open until tomorrow, May 16, 2018. All participants' responses will remain anonymous.


Thanks,


Lindsey
