Abstract

This work aims to present and discuss results of research about the perception of researchers regarding the deposit of scientific production in open access institutional repositories. The results presented compose results of a larger research whose purpose was to propose guidelines for the deposit of scientific production in open access institutional repositories based on the perception of the different actors that participate in the scholarly communication system. From the methodological point of view, the study has a descriptive purpose and a qualitative methodological approach, since the proposal of the guidelines was based on the perceptions of the actors involved. As a research method, the survey was adopted, which was operationalized with the adoption of the semistructured interview technique. Among the conclusions, the main motivations for depositing scientific production in institutional repositories are diversified according to the areas of knowledge. Among them are the awareness of the benefits of open access, compulsory deposit, institutional incentives and the link to culturally deposit-prone disciplines.
