English abstract
Institutional repositories are deposits of different types of digital files for access, disseminate and preserve them. This paper aims to explain the importance of repositories in the academic field of engineering as a way to democratize knowledge by teachers, researchers and students to contribute to social and human development. These repositories, usually framed in the Open Access Initiative, allow to ensure access free and open (unrestricted legal and economic) to different sectors of society and, thus, can make use of the services they offer. Finally, that repositories are evolving in the academic and scientific, and different disciplines of engineering should be prepared to provide a range of services through these systems to society of today and tomorrow. This paper is a preprint in WEEF (World Engineering Education Forum) 2012

Los repositorios institucionales son depósitos de archivos digitales de diferentes tipologías para accederlos, difundirlos y preservarlos. Este artículo tiene como propósito explicar la importancia de los repositorios en el ámbito académico de la Ingeniería como una manera de democratizar el conocimiento por parte de los docentes, investigadores y alumnos para contribuir al desarrollo social y humano. Estos repositorios, enmarcados generalmente en la iniciativa Open Access, permiten asegurar el acceso libre y abierto (sin restricciones legales y económicas) a los diferentes sectores de la sociedad y de esa manera puedan hacer uso de los servicios que ofrecen. Finalmente, los repositorios están evolucionando en el ámbito académico y científico, y las diferentes disciplinas de la Ingeniería deben prepararse para brindar un conjunto de servicios a través de esos sistemas para la sociedad de hoy y del futuro.
