Institutional repositories face several challenges including increasing individual and institutional research profiles, expanding repositories in Africa and South Africa, sharing knowledge with other institutions, gaining support within their own institutions, populating repositories with content, developing staff skills, influencing publisher policies on self-archiving, shifting mindsets towards open source, ensuring OAI-PMH compliance, and ensuring long-term preservation of works. Additional challenges include increasing adoption rates, providing sustainability, developing policies, and managing intellectual property rights and costs.

Editor's Notes
Good morning everybody. Setting up an institutional repository can be very challenging, and the nature of challenges you experience will mostly depend on where you and your organization find yourselves in the implementation process. Often when you are challenged, you need to take certain decisions and make a choice between various options, which will then result in certain changes with regard to your future activities. During this 10 minute presentation I would like to share with you 10 of the most important challenges we are currently experiencing or have experienced, and that will also possibly come your way at some stage.
