The Use of Institutional Repositories for Self-Archiving in Canadian Universities
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study investigates the use of institutional repositories (IR) for self-archiving journal articles inthe U15 universities as well as the presence of institutional policies and publisher embargos. While 45.1%to 56.6% of publications are available in open access (OA), only 0.5% to 10.7% are found in the IRs. Wefound only three university-wide OA policies, and embargo periods of 12 months or more for 25.6% ofjournal policies. This suggests that IR play a minor role in OA practices, and a need for more policiesrelated to self-archiving and the use of IR specifically.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
