From November 27 to December 5, 2017, a series of workshops for the depositors of the Institutional Repository of ONMedU Departments (IRONMEDU) was conducted on the basis of the Electronic Library (2a, Mechnikov). http://repo.odmu.edu.ua/xmlui/
The participants were familiarized with the benefits of Open Access and the Repository policy, its structure, the main regulatory documents governing the work of IRONMEDU, the DSpace software used to create and manage open archives. The workshops showed the step-by-step instructions for registering depositors in the repository and the methodology for forming metadata, defining the main criteria for the work of depositors.
The seminars were held in an atmosphere of interest from the representatives of the departments and were accompanied by an active discussion of certain technical issues.
The employees of the Electronic Library promised a full support to depositors, readiness for fruitful cooperation on the formation of the scientific content of the Institutional Repository and offered to provide individual consultations for depositors in convenient time for teachers.
