Please excuse cross posting. We are trying to pose this question to the
IR community without regard to platform.<br>
<br>
Does anybody have any statistics they'd be willing to share regarding
<br>
time or cost per item made available in an institutional repository?
<br>
<br>
Specifically, how long does it
take in total to upload a document, including time to:
<br>
<ul>
<li>determine if a work is eligible in the first place (i.e.,
investigating publisher's copyright policy)</li>
<li>acquire the full-text (postprints from faculty or publisher PDF
version)</li>
<li>uploading of metadata and document(s) itself</li>
<li>any review done before making it fully public on the repository</li>
<li>other steps? <br>
<br>
</li>
</ul>
Then any cost figures associated with this whole process.<br>
<br>
Any insights appreciated!
<br>
