The Creative Librarian is a hub for matters important to librarians/information scientists of today. There is a definite lean towards electronic issues, however it isn't restricted to only those. Hopefully this site will also be useful for informing non-librarians on these issues as so many of them affect us all.

BMC Repository Service

Under its program, for a fee, BMC will �build, launch, maintain, and populate� repositories for institutions that could not otherwise afford to, or may lack the infrastructure or technical capacity in-house. Institutions can choose to pay a �one-off set-up fee,� to BMC, which will then build a repository to an institution�s requirements. They can hire BMC to maintain the repository or take over operation and maintenance themselves at any time. The institution remains the owner of the repository.

P.P.S.- The service now has it’s own website.
