Abstract

The institutional repository has become the locus for holding the academic production of universities and research institutes, becoming a valuable tool for the dissemination of scientific information. However, because of the technological dynamism, repositories, as computerized tools, require constant updating. Similarly, to serve the dissemination of scientific information, they should be in line with the trends of science. In this sense, this study aims to survey and analyze the adherence of Brazilian repositories regarding: Open Data; Open archives; Open Access; Open science; Digital curation and e-science. To this end, a quantitative approach was adopted, administering a survey to the managers of Brazilian institutional repositories. The research revealed a still-incipient stage, but promising in relation to adherence to the trends in science, where the largest support is given to Open Access. Thus, this study contributes to the discussion surrounding Brazilian institutional repositories
