Abstract
Information and Communication Technology has given a good opportunity for the librarians to build digital libraries which provides access to resources and knowledge services in this modern era. Digital libraries are the demand of the day. Each university or institution can build its own digital library or repository. It is the platform for the access of institutional publications. It helps to increase the web presence of the university. It is clear that digital repository is a powerful tool to provide quality institution services. The Digital Repository has been given a new role to the librarians to be a part of creation of information apart from storing and dissemination of information. This paper looks at the elaborative study on author’s attitude towards depositing publications in MAHE Digital Repository. It acts as an archive for individual author to store their achievement. General benefits provided by Digital Repository are also given in this paper.
