The proposal presents the “2014 Census of Open Access Repositories in Germany, Austria and Switzerland” (2014 Census) conducted in the cause of a seminar at Berlin School of Library and Information Science (BSLIS) at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. It succeeds the 2012 Census of Open Access repositories in Germany. The 2014 Census gives insights into the development of Open Access repositories and current trends in repository design. By extending the research design it also indicates unexplored aspects of Open Access repositories. With the paper the authors will present the overall 2014 Census results exclusively.
