Contribution of the digital repository DRUGG to higher information literacy in the field of civil engineering in Slovenia

Building an IR is a complex project in which the whole institution has to be involved. The paper describes the steps taken in implementing the IR considering the technological infrastructure, human resources and collaboration of the library staff with other professional and administrative faculty units. The library offers all technical support to the authors by archiving publications in the IR. Thus, the importance and the reputation of the library have increased, since it brings a significant added value to the quality of all activities at the faculty. The statistics of visits and downloads after two years of operations confirms its importance in Slovenia and abroad.
