The Repositories Support Project and the Research Information Network are holding a free event to look at how researchers are responding to mandates to include the results of their research work in repositories. The event will cover the issues around both research funders’ and institutional mandates at institutional, subject-based and national levels and ask how these mandates are working in practice.
Key speakers include:
- Paul Ayris, Director, Library Services, University College London
- Paul Davey, Engagement Manager, UKPubMed Central
- Bill Hubbard, Manager, SHERPA, University of Nottingham
- Paul Hubbard, Head of Research Policy, HEFCE
- Charles Oppenheim, Head of Department and Professor of Information Science at Loughborough University
Places are free but limited, so please book early, by registering online.

According to the organisers, about 50 people have signed up, but mostly from the library community, and they would really like to have researchers there as well.
