Abstract
This article addresses the need to establish an Institutional Repository at Lebanese University in Lebanon to facilitate the collection, preservation, and dissemination of the intellectual output of the students, faculty, and administrative officers of the University. This proposal for a prototype Institutional Repository (IR) offers the Lebanese University a means to enhance digital archiving and repository services for the University Library community.
