This poster presents usage data on institutional repositories at research intensive institutions across the United States. The Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education categorizes academic institutions in the United States by levels of research activity, funding, and commitment to doctoral programs. There are currently 146 Research 1 (R1) institutions: 107 public institutions and 39 private institutions. Both the Colorado School of Mines (Mines) and Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) are R1 institutions. An increase of research activity has allowed Mines to recently join the R1 rank. Both Mines and CMU host institutional repositories to disseminate their communities’ scholarly outputs. This poster explores how the institutional repositories at Mines, a newly designated R1 institution, and at CMU, an established R1 institution, compare with each other as well as with other similarly sized institutions in both the United States and internationally. This poster presents key findings and data visualizations from the comparison data on institutional repositories, including size, content type, numbers of repositories and types (such as institutional, data, and archival), software types, staffing, and funding. Data considered in these comparisons will also include institution-level data such as number of students, faculty, budget, and library statistics. |
