Abstract Paper presented at the African Digital Scholarship and Curation conference, 12-14 May 2009, CSIR Conference Centre, Pretoria, South Africa - African Higher Education Research Online (AHERO) is an international disciplinary repository for research texts that focus on the practice and development of higher education in Africa. Distributed researchers upload their documents to AHERO through a semi-automated process. Launched in January 2007, AHERO now holds 435 full text research texts relating to African higher education. The paper will outline the project's objectives and present the results of findings emerging from the two year experience of liaison with researchers and publishers as we attempted to recruit papers for the disciplinary archive.
