OAIster is an online combined bibliographic catalogue of open access material aggregated using OAI-PMH.[1]
It began at the University of Michigan in 2002 funded by a grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and with the purpose of establishing a retrieval service for publicly available digital library resources provided by the research library community. During its tenure at the University of Michigan, OAIster grew to become one of the largest aggregations of records pointing to open access collections in the world.
In 2009, OCLC[2] formed a partnership with the University of Michigan to provide continued access to open access collections aggregated in OAIster. Since OCLC began managing OAIster, it has grown to include over 30 million records contributed by over 1,500 organizations. OCLC is evolving OAIster to a model of self-service contribution for all open access digital repositories to ensure the long-term sustainability of this rich collection of open access materials.
OAIster data is harvested from Open Archives Initiative (OAI)-compliant digital libraries, institutional repositories, and online journals using the self-service WorldCat Digital Collection Gateway.

I want to talk about the repositories. Repositories are files to preserve digital documentation. There are different, two large groups repositories, repositories of institutional and thematic repositories. Institutional repositories are created primarily to conserve the documentation generated by an institution, the documentation that many times is lost or that we have no where to save them, or by the volatility of the web pages ended disappearing. The institutional digital repository of the upv is called riunet and what we have here. Well, this repository organises its content by communities and collections, we have collections of teaching, research, property, teaching materials, learning objects, academic work, and many subcategories more. The repositories, moreover, all are supported by what is the flows of open access, that is to say, its objective is that everything that is contained in this is in open access. However, despite the fact that this is one of the main objectives of these repositories, we find that in repositories such as ours, in riunet, but in others too, for there, we can find. Some of the documents are in open access but others are closed on access, here we have, for example, in this collection of scholarly works, we have a non- negligible portion of documents of scholarly works that are closed, so that no one can access them. Just say at this point that if there was no access to them is because the authors have not given their permission to be consulted freely. Having said that we can consult those who are in open access and just go surfing the different for the different screens, reaching a record that we are interested in. Do you see? Here we have the registration of strolling urban spaces of the flâneur, the ciberflâneur here we would have all the references of the same, and here above, we would have the link to the full text. Now i want to appoint, or speak unto you a little bit of a repository of another kind, a repository, agecon thematic. It is a specialized repository in documents in open access on the issue, an issue related to agriculture, agriculture, etc. If you do a search on it, i am going to look, for example, by ozone, we will return a series of bibliographical references with the link to the full text of the same. In this document, or to the documents contained in this thematic repository can be accessed from any place, you do not need any subscription. As it takes a little bit in open, we are going to go to the last, here we have, in the last resort that i wanted to show you, which is collected. As both repositories have proliferated both thematic and institutional, there has been to create, it has had to create a new tool that are the, a metasearches say, a harvester, which is nothing other than a data collector. That is to say, what it does is to search the repositories that there are different and brought the bibliographic information of all these repositories, that is to say, that collects, looking at. For example, open access what is going to do is recoletar from a single interface, launch the search to the different institutional repositories in spain, not only institutional, thematic also in spain, and takes us back these results. We have the citation of this document in open access and we have a link that brings us to the full record, that is to say, to complete the whole reference, but in addition to the source origin, the source of where it has regained that document. In particular, recoleta had brought this document on open access, had brought of dialnet, and the djing, we went to the native dialnet page here and that we will be able to access the pdf of the full text. This gives us a mistake, because at the moment it seems that this fall the page dialnet, but this would be the way of accessing a document from recoleta.
