Counting on OpenDOAR

OpenDOAR has been transformed during the past year into the repository registry with the most accurate record counts. Repositories' counts used to be updated infrequently, if at all, but now 95% of entries have accurate record counts, regularly updated. A new suite of twelve methods is being used to harvest counts from different types of repository and platform. These are proving to be more efficient, accurate and reliable than earlier methods. If your OpenDOAR entry still lacks a record count or is still out of date, there will be tips on how to provide the information we require, and therefore improve the profile of your repository.
