- Institutional repositories are technical-social information systems whose failure is often attributed to several reasons, including the lack of resources and adherence by stakeholders. How to understand repositories in a comprehensive, unbiased manner? To answer this question, we describe institutional repositories as systems, characterizing their components, environmental items, and structuring bonds. Our approach is the abstraction of those elements from a literature review guided by Mario Bunge's composition-environment-structuremechanism system model. The selection of sources is opportunistic, seeking to cover the origins of social facts according to Bunge: environmental, bio-psychological, economic, political, and cultural. The procedures include individually marking components, environmental items, and bonds in the source text, then discussing those markings in group to generate a consensus marking and its consolidation in a system model. Here we report on a pilot study of the abstraction technique using a single source text. The resulting institutional repository model ought to be comprehensive enough to allow for enlightened repository management decisions – for instance, to give up the adoption of the renowned Dublin Core metadata standard because it hampers the retrieval of repository documents, being therefore detrimental to science communication.
