description The establishment of the institutional repositories in Malaysian research universities begins in 2007. The main purpose of the institutional repository development is for the enhancement of the visibility of the universities’ knowledge output. As the institutional repositories store and manage the knowledge output created in digital forms, the sustainability of the collections may be at risks due to the complexity and the rapid development of the digital environment. This study is meant to investigate the implementation of the digital preservation strategy among the institutional repositories in the Malaysian research universities. Furthermore, the study would explore the inhibiting factors that would affect the implementation of the digital preservation strategy by the institutional repositories.
