A Helping Hand from the ExpertsMany institutions do not have the resources necessary to build or maintain an institutional repository. The EPrints Services team offers a complete range of advice and consultancy to support institutions who have adopted, or who are looking to adopt, the EPrints solution. We can provide as much or as little support as you need to create and maintain a professional repository. Why use EPrints Services?Through our experience of developing the core EPrints software, building the institutional repositories at our own university, and assisting with many other repository installations around the world, we have built up considerable understanding of all the issues that lie behind establishing a repository in an institution. Members of the EPrints team are frequently consulted on all aspects of institutional repositories, be they technical and policy issues or best practice in encouraging uptake amongst the academic staff who will be populating them. Testimonials"Support provided by the EPrints Services team was invaluable as they were able to understand our individual requirements as an institution, help
tailor the software to meet these needs, and train and support out IT staff so that they could maintain and develop the repository ... has helped
us move the institutional repository project forward swiftly, efficiently and successfully." "EPrints (Services) have been very helpful in setting up and configuring the repository and loading data for us; speed of response has been
phenomenal; customisation of material types and metadata has been undertaken very swiftly. I wish that other software providers and hosts were as
good to deal with. I have no hesitation in recommending EPrints as software or the hosting service."
