The document summarizes the Repositories and Preservation Programme that was conducted by JISC, looking back at what was asked of participants and what was accomplished, and looking forward to the future direction. Specifically: 1) JISC asked participants to create more repositories, enhance existing ones, and provide services to help and exploit repository content through specific targeted projects. 2) Participants established more repositories, built on existing successes, and created services to help with discovery, deposit, and application profiles. 3) Looking ahead, the document suggests moving away from individual projects and toward more joined-up international activities, exposing and sharing content across repositories to better support research, teaching, and learning.
