Abstract
MSpace is one component of the University of Manitoba's institutional repository. MSpace is dedicated to collecting, storing, preserving and making accessible digital versions of the intellectual output of UM community members. An institutional repository can include items such as faculty publications; theses; learning objects; research, conference and working papers; technical reports; images; audio and video files; datasets and computer programs.
The Libraries work with University units to build communities and populate collections in MSpace with academic research material. Items can be submitted to both a publisher and to MSpace, depending on the publisher’s copyright agreement and electronic publishing policies. When negotiating agreements with publishers, it is in the author's best interest to retain self-archiving privileges and copyright.
