Open-access archives and repositories
* There is no official or complete list of archives and repositories. I don't plan to list all the lists I can find, just the best. If there is ever a directory of archives as comprehensive and up-to-date as the DOAJ is for journals, then I'll probably delete this section.
* Alphabetical order.
* Open-access OAI-compliant archives (or "data providers" in [http://www.openarchives.org/ OAI] lingo)

Maintained by the [http://search.grainger.uiuc.edu/top/ Grainger Engineering Library Information Center] at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Automated to some extent so it's likely to more complete than most other lists. Also see the [http://errol.oclc.org/ Errol list and project] from OCLC, built on the UIUC list.
