• Resumen

  • This chapter is a part of an inductive reasoning-based longitudinal study that aims to elicit novel barriers of institutional repository (IR) innovation in developing country contexts. The study reported in this chapter is based on qualitative data collected through observation and secondary data from three Nigerian universities. The findings reveal that reconstructing the institutional framework that supports scientific knowledge management systems (SKMS) in developing countries is a panacea for successful IR innovation. The study provides insights that differ from existing ones where scholars assume that IR barriers are only university based.
