Just a quick post this one...
The OU Library e-prints repository is still taking its first faltering steps. Hopefully over time it will come to be used as a matter of course for lodging electronic versions of published academic papers produced by OU researchers.
If you're a researcher with published papers, or 'research administrator' of one of the OU's Research Centres, and not sure what this new fangled repository thing is, check out the Library ePrint Info Page or this useful piece on Questions and answers about opening up access to research results
