Institutional planning is needed to prepare and coordinate policies associated with institutional repositories in a way that will facilitate discovery services based on metadata harvesting on the campus and national levels. This presentation will describe planning efforts being undertaken at Emory University as well as policy suggestions for consideration by decision makers involved in developing institutional respositories. The presentation will also outline the risks associated with not coordinating planning on repositories and metadata harvesting.
