Open Access Week

This week October 24 – 30 is Open Access Week, a global event to promote Open Access as a “new norm in scholarship and research”.  Institutional Repositories continue to play a key role in Open Access and ORO continues to perform excellently in comparison to like repositories in the UK.  We have over 19,000 items in ORO, over a third of which have full text attachments.  We have around 10,000 visits a week and over the last 6 months have had visitors from over 200 countries and territories.
ORO’s success is contingent on the continued deposit of research outputs.  Thank you for continuing to deposit your research into ORO and making the University’s research open.

    Rattan, open access week is an initiative to promote open access. We are promoting it as ORO is an open access repository.
