Summary/Abstract: Institutional repositories are products of information technology that ensure the increase of the impact and promote the teaching and research activities within a university or institution, by managing and distribution digital scientific documents. The main objective of the institutional repositories is to provide open access to the scientific research results of an institution, but in the case of universities, these can be used for educational purposes and the storage of educational materials.The article presents the researches for the achievement of a local institutional repository for the Department of Administrative Sciences of the Faculty of Letters of the University of Bucharest, which will allow the publication of the license and dissertation works of the students. The implementation of such an institutional repository will be done using the Dspace platform. This is an open source software platform for universities, institutions and non-profit academic organizations. We also consider extending the institutional repository to the other specialties within the Faculty of Letters and developing it into a mini-e-learning platform that will allow students to have access to educational resources and to communicate with teachers, to complete questionnaires such as, for example, student assessment.
