Two aspects of scientific communication
• Research papers– All types (Conferences, journals, grey literature
etc.)– Classical media vs. Online publications– Strong institutional needs
• Research data/digital resources– Databases (e.g. genomics, chemistry, etc.)– Semi-structures documents (e.g. corpora and
lexica in the humanities)– Required for faster scientific progress

Research papers at CNRS
• Institutional repository as a way towards open access– Win-win situation between the researcher and the
institution• Researchers: bring the scientific content• Institution: brings the infrastructure (money!) and
validation (documentary expertise)
– Overall strategy• Added value through quality and services• Foster open access within the institutional repository

Quality
• Quality of information– Systematic check of metadata descriptions by a
librarian– Institutional acknowledgement– Wide coverage
• Cf. annual CNRS production: ~ 20 000 papers
• Quality of infrastructure provision– Long-term archiving environments– Wide dissemination

Services
• To our researchers– Quality, accessibility, longstanding archives,
reporting aid (annual assessment, lab assessment), legal support
• To the institution– Quality, wide coverage of lab production, better
evaluation, prospective tools
• To the research (and tax payer) community– Quality, wide accessibility of the French
(multidisciplinary) research production

Basic roles in the workflow
• Researcher– Provides basic metadata information– Provides the actual content (file)– Expresses a will with regards OA
• Librarian– Checks and improve metadata– Validates the researcher’s will (legal constraints)
• Research manager– Approves the inclusion of the publication in the
institutional repository

Rich metadata
• Multiplicity of MD configurations, from researcher to open archives
• Impossibility to standardize one single format– Solution: implements an ISO 11179 compliant MD
registry ensuring semantic interoperability across standards (DC, HAL DTD, TEI, RDF, …)
• Additional services:– Diary of researchers, laboratories (multi-institutional)– Typology of scientific domains (in-house?)– Multidisciplinary terminological database

Implementation
• The HAL platform (CCSD; http://ccsd.cnrs.fr)– Coupled to ArXiv– Mechanisms allowing the creation of views (stamping)
and collections– Already widely used in specific communities
(Physics); PhD theses
• Several experiments– Large laboratory (350) with librarian in Nancy– Cluster of institutions (INRIA, CNRS, Univ. J. Fourier)
with three documentation centers– Humanities laboratory with “remote” librarian at INIST

Digital resources• Wide variety of resource types
– Community specific approach (e.g. standards)
• High technical level required– Specific creation and maintenance methods
• Less copyright constraints– Replaced by privacy issues (humanities) and
specific maintenance and distribution models
• Policy — win-win strategy again– Include resource production and dissemination in
academic evaluation criteria– Support the development of resources through a
network of competence centres

Summary• Institutional repositories to leverage open
access– One single infrastructure - Several views– Two policy levels
• Mandatory contribution to IR• Encourage contribution to OA
• Institutions should put emphasis on quality and services– What is good for the institution is good for open
access
• Beyond OAI– More standardization efforts on data description
and representation
