Abstract
Universities are enriched with its resources like thesis and dissertations. These unpublished
research materials do not have a digital platform to share them to the users who need
information on topic of their research.Unless they visit the library; they will not get access to
these dissertations in physical form. Users may get access to digital thesis of universities
through the repositories of the universities. The study is based on analysis of the websites of
universities and institutions.The study discussed and focused on the present status of the
universities in Nagpur Region whether these universities are having institutional repositories
and how these could be accessible to the users. The study also finds out whether any other
institutions other than universities are having institutional repositories in this region. It
was concluded that lot many efforts must be taken, to show case the universities own published
material as well as thesis and dissertations through institutional repositories. If university
libraries will provide soft copies of these research reports through institutional repositories,
then only the world-wide researchers will get access to them. The research institutions are
also having institutional repositories in this region and having rich resources in the digital
form.
