Introduction
O A I i i i h d b i i h l lOpen Access Initiative has removed barriers to accessing scholarly terature and hence avoiding duplication of research work and lagiarism.
OAI has its roots in the Open Access and Institutional Repository (IR) movements. It develops and promotes interoperability standards that im to facilitate the efficient dissemination and long-term access to gcholarly literature. he IRs are playing an important role in giving access to electronic esources in different format including scholarly publicationsesources in different format including scholarly publications.urpose of this paper:o give technical information about the application of ABCD Open ource Software for managing IR of Electronic Theses andource Software for managing IR of Electronic Theses and

ETD Repository
ectronic Theses and Dissertations (ETD) is an electronic repository system ich comprises information such as concepts and outputs of the latest earches produced by scholars during their process of cognition, exploration d analysis.ese ETD Repositories are managed by using digital library software or content nagement softwares in many organizations.

Technical features making ABCD suitable for ETD Repository applicationsp y pp
Freedom of database structure : ABCD offers flexibility to create ull text database of ETD using existing MARC 21 format, CEPAL, Dublin Core or users can create new databases from scratch using ub Co e o use s ca c eate e databases o sc atc us gSIS Field Definition Tables and its powerful Formatting Language. This is a rather unique feature of this software. Not many other softwares provide such flexibility for database management. It p y gsupports therefore all standards and non-standards.

Adding New ETD Repositories from the Scratch
User can create and add as many databases (ETD or any type) on one l tf d th t l i th ABCD C t l d l b tplatform and manages them separately in the ABCD Central module but
keep them within one single searching environment (the 'meta-search') in the ABCD-Site for end-users.
