Dear all, The post is really very useful and more info in a similar fashion about other countries should be prepared. Regarding the issue of "carrots and sticks" I attended the presentation of the Irish national academic repository (http://rian.ie/) during the past OAI7 conference at Geneve and it was impressive. This is a good starting model about the added value that a repository should provide, specially for actual end-users that are the scientists not the librarians (no puns intended). The interface is very clean, options for searching and recovering are powerful and best of all, there is a lot of very valuable figures everywhere. Most of the Irish researchers probably will deposit because it is a perfect showcase for their full activity results.
I will like to know about other similar initiatives.
