In November, 2015, I had the opportunity to visit with bepress in Berkeley and have a interesting conversation with CEO JG Bankier and the bepress team about the evolution of institutional repositories, including some humbling cross-examination about the paper I wrote on repositories over a decade ago. bepress has made the video available and it can be found at:

There is also a blog post

My thanks to bepress for a very stimulating visit.
