Abstract
Argues that faculty members should not view hits to their works in an institutional repository as a drain on their Social Science Research Network rankings. While SSRN excels at delivering their work to the cadre of legal specialists, IRs typically do a better job of presenting it to a broader readership. This expanded exposure should be judged a positive complementary benefit.
