One of the most important duties of universities is to research
and produce knowledge. Institutional repositories are a major gateway for
the management of information and knowledge representing and making
accessible the intellectual products of a university.
Ferdowsi University of Mashhad (FUM) has established its institutional
repository named the System for Management of Scientific Information of
Ferdowsi University of Mashhad (SIMAD) since 2006. The aim of this
research is to identify and develop the specifications of an appropriate
institutional repository and to investigate the extent to which SIMAD’s
features match with such specifications. Survey research and case study were
implemented from institutional, users, and system aspects. Three different
data collection approaches and tools were employed. The specifications of
an appropriate institutional repository were grouped in six categories. These
categories formed the basis of data analysis. According to the results, in
regard to preparing guidelines, documentation and usage some changes and developments should be taken into consideration. In terms of management
and administration of the process of storage and submitting of documents,
SIMAD is at average level of efficiency.
