Abstract
This paper highlights into the importance of Open Access (OA) and Institutional repository initiatives
to the system of scholarly communication. Open Access & Institutional repositories—digital collections
that capture and preserve the intellectual output of university communities—respond to two strategic
issues facing academic institutions. This paper examines institutional repositories & Open Access
from these complementary perspectives, describing their potential role and exploring their impact
on major stakeholders in the scholarly communication process. Through literature survey and review
the author(s) identify the relevant works on Open Access and its meanings etc.
