Steigern Repositorien die Nutzung und den Impact von Publikationen?

Abstract

This presentation investigates whether repositories enhance the usage and impact of scholarly publications. It outlines the roles of institutional and disciplinary repositories, focusing on their ability to support Open Access initiatives and improve visibility through services such as metadata integration and content acquisition. Challenges related to repository adoption and impact measurement are discussed, alongside potential alternatives to traditional metrics like the Journal Impact Factor (JIF). The session concludes with recommendations for leveraging repositories to enhance scholarly communication and visibility.
