Abstract

The adoption of open access institutional repositories (OAIRs) in Indonesia is considered slow despite the fact that the open access (OA) movement has been widespread among higher education institutions (HEIs). There have also been several issues related to their sustainability and the wide practice of restricting public access to the repositories’ collections. It appears that OA advocates experience difficulties in ensuring the sustainability of institutional repositories (IRs) and gaining support from the university management. Several universities, however, seem to have developed more established IRs. Thus, understanding their approaches to advocating IR would be useful for other institutions in terms of improving their advocacy practices. Nevertheless, literature searches demonstrated that there are limited studies focusing on the key factors for effective advocacy and their implication in the sustainability of OAIRs.
