When you say "institutional id" do you mean an "author id" ↵ for authors in the institution? If so, EPrints 3 already has that feature. Or do you mean an id attached to the author that complements the existing author id and identifies which part of the institution (s)he is in? A kind of "school-id"? And when you say "harvest records", do you mean via an OAI harvest, ↵ or an Eprints search? Some repositories record the departments/research groups to which each paper is affiliated (using part of the subject tree). If that is achieved, you can search for all of the papers which belong to any part of the institution very easily. -- Les
