Abstract

Institutional Repositories(IR) are infrastructures that ensure
accessibility, stability and reliability of research data which requires policies,
standards, and data management plan to deposit research data. The scholarly
community needs reliable long-term access to research data. The data curation
is important for the research community to develop a strategy for long term-use
throughout its lifecycle, from creation, storage and dissemination to the time
when it is archive. This paper describes an overview of the institutional
repositories in Thai universities regarding the issues of the responsible units, the
open access policy, the typology of repositories, the digital repositories
structure, the catalog description, the format of research output, and the web
portal. It also suggests the schemes for facilitating discovery and re-use
of research data such as the national research data service and the registry of
research data repositories.
Keywords: institutional repositories, research data, Thai universities.
