 student-created learning objects and projects, student publications, art, music, and OER, to list a few examples. The scope of institutional repositories is far-ranging and the impact reaches beyond curation and discoverability to creating a connection between
 student-produced work and the sharing or publication of that work with the greater community. Institutional repositories amplify student voice in a time when community colleges place that student voice at the center of their main initiatives, such as OER,
 open pedagogy, capstone projects, and guided pathways.</span></p>
