Digital Archive called DSpace:
"... Archives like DSpace 'build on a growing grassroots faculty practice of posting research online,'... DSpace Sampler At M.I.T., each academic department exercises quality control and determines what is to be sent to DSpace. Among current offerings: working papers on campaign contributions (from the Sloan School of Management), on amphibious assault ships for the 21st century (from the Department of Ocean Engineering) and on traffic emissions (from the Center for Technology, Policy and Industrial Development). M.I.T. expects to have 5,000 items archived by the fall, and will add 7,500 theses later this year. And that, they promise, is just the beginning."
