On 22 October 2003 The Hon Peter McGauran MP, Acting Minister for Education, Science And Training announced funding to provide for four new projects to address an identified need to enhance the creation and management of information, improve access to information resources, and facilitate the discovery and dissemination of new information to researchers and institutions.

• Meta Access Management System (MAMS);
• Towards an Australian Partnership for Sustainable Repositories (APSR);
• The Australian Research Repositories Online to the World (ARROW); and
• Australian Digital Theses Program Expansion and Redevelopment (ADT).

To support open access journal publishing, the Open Journal Systems (OJS) software from the University of British Columbia’s Public Knowledge Project has been selected as a good fit for ARROW’s requirements. Swinburne University of Technology is taking the lead in the use of the OJS software in the ARROW context.
