Making data in PhD dissertations reusable for research
Schöpfel, Joachim ; Malleret, Cécile
How can an academic library contribute to make data submitted together with PhD dissertations useful for further research? Our paper provides some recommendations for information professionals, based on a review of studies and projects and on empirical evidence from a content analysis of data sources and types from 300 print and digital dissertations in social sciences and humanities (1987–2013) and a survey on data management conducted with more than 300 scientists and PhD students in April and May 2015 on the Lille campus.

10 years with grey literature at Tomas Bata University in Zlín
Budínský, Lukáš ; Fabián, Ondřej
The Library of Tomas Bata University in Zlín has been working on accessioning academic grey literature systematically for the last 10 years. During this time, one of the first information systems storing theses and dissertations changed from a closed, manually updated system into a fully automated and fully open repository with a number of integrations with both internal and external systems. New types of documents were added and several services were introduced for working with grey literature effectively. This contribution will describe its current state and outline the hurdles encountered getting there.

The role of academic library in disseminating grey literature – a case study: Adam Mickiewicz University Repository
Rychlik, Małgorzata
One of the main and crucial strategic projects that any university, or an institution of higher learning, has been recently involved in is the creation and development of an institutional repository. The AMUR repository as an open web-based archive of scholarly material originated in 2010 and has aggregated a collection of more than 11,000 diverse digital objects. This paper presents the types of documents that have been archived in the repository, focusing in particular on unconventional (grey) literature. The following key elements are presented: standards for metadata, archiving rules that specify the criteria for the type of data to be archived, access mode to specific resources and the purpose and structure of deposit licences for the AMUR institutional repository. In addition, the language coverage (Polish, official congress languages and other languages) as well as chronological range of the grey literature deposited with the repository are briefly discussed.

Anti-Plagiarism Services For Our Repositories
Mach, Jan
The presentation is focused on a comparative analysis of systems for detecting duplicates (called anti-plagiarism systems) suitable for repositories of ETDs in the Czech Republic. The paper describes the testing process and results. These results can help to decide, which system will be suitable as a anti-plagiarism tool for the control of theses and other types of gray literature.

Grey Literature Repositories
Pejšová, Petra ; Vaska, Marcus ; Schöpfel, Joachim ; Fürstová, Iveta ; Polčák, Radim ; Mach, Jan ; Frantíková, Bohdana ; Karlach, Petr ; Dolanský, Jindřich ; Svoboda, Martin
The book Grey Literature Repositories provides information about the concept of grey literature, its development, types, and producers in the European context, with a focus on the Czech Republic. The example of the National Repository of Grey Literature, practically implemented in the National Technical Library, is given to illustrate how such a repository may be built. The most important factors in the success of such project are cooperation and legislation. The book presents the components necessary to construct a repository from a practical viewpoint, namely analysis, selection and implementation of software, creation of the metadata format and audit of repository credibility.
