Institutional repositories are digital collections that store, preserve, and provide access to the scholarly output of an institution, such as research articles, theses, conference papers, and other materials produced by faculty, students, and staff. These repositories are typically managed by libraries or academic institutions and serve as a platform for showcasing and disseminating the research output of the institution. Institutional repositories can also provide long-term preservation of digital materials and facilitate open access to scholarly work, increasing the visibility and impact of research produced by the institution.
