Abstract: Institutional repositories (IRs) are one of the major planks in the strategy for achieving open access.

Kathleen Shearer provides an overview of the project and discuss the opportunities and challenges for research libraries in supporting the open access movement. Context: Members of the CLA Task Force on Open Access, the Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition (SPARC), and the Canadian Association of Research Libraries (CARL) discussed the transition to Open Access and also offered a workshop. The presentations and workshop were given during the CLA Preconference on Open Access Meeting at the 1st International PKP Scholarly Publishing Conference in Vancouver, British-Columbia (Canada) from July 11-13, 2007.
