This short update will present current data to compare with the 2017 analysis of 115 bepress and other research university repositories that was presented at the fall 2017 CNI meeting. By using the 2017 data as a comparison to 2019 data, it will be possible to present a compelling snapshot of changes over the past two years with regard to repository growth, content, and demand. This short update will advance conversations about shared repository infrastructure requirements including capacity, support, community, and policy.
