In this presentation we will describe the work we have recently conducted on the integration between Cambridge’s Institutional Repository, Apollo, and the University’s CRIS system. The integration work aimed to streamline and enhance the existing workflows for managing Open Access (OA) submissions by both reducing the number of systems in use and improving the experiences of our researchers when dealing with OA-related matters. We would also like to discuss issues arising from the integration work and suggest potential features for future development.
