It used to be that the record of scientific work was complete when it was all published in journals. For a select few – read "Nobel Prize winners" – your lab notebooks and correspondence were of interest. But it's becoming increasingly clear during the extraordinary information revolution in the life sciences that everything done in the lab needs to be captured, from journal club notes to eureka moments to lab parties. That means it's time for institutional repositories.
