Dear all,

The post is really very useful and more info in a similar fashion about 
other countries should be prepared. Regarding the issue of "carrots and 
sticks" I attended the presentation of the Irish national academic 
repository (http://rian.ie/) during the past OAI7 conference at Geneve 
and it was impressive. This is a good starting model about the added 
value that a repository should provide, specially for actual end-users 
that are the scientists not the librarians (no puns intended). The 
interface is very clean, options for searching and recovering are 
powerful and best of all, there is a lot of very valuable figures 
everywhere. Most of the Irish researchers probably will deposit because 
it is a perfect showcase for their full activity results.

I will like to know about other similar initiatives.
