“…Some studies have investigated how the professional and technological frames of organizational actors influence their decisions and actions concerning IS innovation (Acha, 2004;Davidson, 2002;Lord & Maher, 2002;Stoll & Louis, 2007). Some library science literature suggests that understanding how cognitive frames of digital library innovators can influence IR innovation and implementation is important to success (Greene, Marchionini, Plaisant, & Shneiderman, 2000;Khoo & Hall, 2013;Olsen, Narayan, & Ramachandra, 2013). However, there is still not much research on this topic.…”

An institutional repository (IR) is an information system (IS) that has the potential to promote open access to scientific knowledge and the visibility and reputation of scholars. The small number of universities in developing countries that have successfully innovated and implemented an IR hampers the actualization of these benefits. This situation calls for effort toward understanding the factors responsible. We used the snowball sampling technique to select 45 academic librarians from three university libraries in Nigeria that were involved in IR innovation. Data were collected through in‐depth interviews and participatory observation for 15 months. Thematic data analyses show that the relationships between academic librarians' IR innovation cognitive frames (belief, scripts, and resistance routines) influence IR innovation outcomes. The result is a research model that explicates how the relationships between academic librarians' cognitive frames and internal functioning of libraries constitute IR innovation barriers to IR innovation and implementation.

“…The term network suggests that relationships among several teams is the ideal functional group expanding upon the concept of community. According to Khoo and Hall (2013), networks of practice are not ideal knowledge-sharing organizations due to network member's present information in various forms, dependent on the network size and varied member location.…”
