The Shimane University's Institutional Repository(IR), SWAN ？ Shimane University Web Archives of Knowledge- opened in April 2007, under the joint project with the Cyber Science Infrastructure (CSI) Project of the National Institute of Informatics. The university evaluation system and researcher's activity database (RD) have been constructed and operating in many universities in Japan. Shimane University has started the service at July 2006 and achieved high registration rate. Our main effort was to develop an IR system that allows researchers to deposit content documents in cooperation with the RD so as not to request researchers to fill the same data repeatedly. Cooperating with the RD, our IR system, SWAN achieves to reduce the researcher's input load and to improve the registration rate, then we opened the way for the self-archiving. In this paper, the followings are introduced: 1) The methods for real time registration of the selectively copied data between the SWAN and the RD to absorb differences of the data items in both systems.2) The current state of the operation and the problems to be resolved in the future.
