The DRIVER Infrastructure is an implementation of D-NET (see) and hosts one main aggregation system, integrating Open Access metadata records from a growing number of European Institutional Repositories. At present, the infrastructure runs 36 services distributed over 9 partner sites; as a result of the Confederation efforts, the resulting Information Space numbers 1,000,000+ records out of 200+ repositories across 27 countries, and the number of repositories willing to join is still growing. Currently, the space is accessed by three DL applications: the Belgium national repository portal, offering search over the Belgium Repository Federation subset; Recolecta national repository portal, offering search on the Spanish Repository Federation subset; and the main DRIVER portal, providing access and advanced functionality over the whole space.
