Abstract

The main challenges that have had to be overcome in order to try to reach the consolidation of the Mexican Institute of Water Technology repository are exposed. Among the most important tasks are, on the one hand, the legal contrapositions, which have aroused uncertainty among researchers, and, on the other hand, the lack of a determined institutional policy to create awareness among researchers and the institution per se of the usefulness of having an institutional repository.
