Yes, there certainly is! There is the Institutional Archives Registry
(created and maintained by Tim Brody at Southampton), which lists OAI
archives not only by country and archive type and software used
http://archives.eprints.org/eprints.php?action=browse
but also the content size and growth curves for each individual archive
http://archives.eprints.org/eprints.php?page=all
as well as the total growth rate for archives and contents across all
the OAI archives
http://archives.eprints.org/eprints.php?action=analysis
All institutions are strongly encouraged to register their OAI archives at:
http://archives.eprints.org/eprints.php?action=add
and to make sure their archive has an OAI-PMH interface so its content
size can be harvested and counted by
http://celestial.eprints.org/
They are also encouraged to declare and share their institutional
self-archiving policy at:
