"At the most basic and fundamental level, an institutional repository is a recognition that the intellectual life and scholarship of our [colleges] will increasingly be represented, documented, and shared in digital form, and that a primary responsibility of our [colleges] is to exercise stewardship over these riches: both to make them available and to preserve them. An institutional repository is the means by which our [colleges] will address this responsibility both to the members of their communities and to the public. It is a new channel for structuring the [college’s] contribution to the broader world, and as such invites policy and cultural reassessment of this relationship."
