        ** Apologies for Cross-Posting **

The ROAR Registry of Open Access Repositories http://roar.eprints.org/
has just been upgraded to the full power of the EPrints software's
remarkable functionality: http://www.eprints.org/

Please come and explore the power of ROAR to display and track
repository size, contents and growth across time, by country,
repository type, and many performance parameters.

This will make it possible to monitor and analyze repository growth
worldwide, and to encourage institutions to create their own
repositories and adopt deposit mandates for filling them.

Please also register your repository if it is not yet in ROAR. The new
functionality means you will own your record and will be able to
update it as it progresses.

And register your institution's Open Access Mandate in ROARMAP, ROAR's
companion service, tracking mandate growth worldwide:
