Can Web 2.0 Enhance Community Participation in an Institutional Repository? The Case of PocketKnowledge at Teachers College, Columbia University
Cocciolo, Anthony
Journal of Academic Librarianship, v36 n4 p304-312 Jul 2010
This project investigates if a Web 2.0 approach to designing an institutional repository can positively impact community participation. To study this, two institutional repositories (one Web 2.0, the other not) are used within the same institution. Results indicate that the use of a Web 2.0 approach significantly enhances community participation. (Contains 6 figures and 1 table.)
