Following on from our blog post last week, the changes to ORO are now complete and are now live. Check out the new look!

The Library has been working on refreshing ORO and its appearance and these changes have been implemented today.

This refresh has been undertaken to improve responsiveness and accessibility. The new look and feel is cleaner and has better contrast so ORO is easier to read, and will work better on mobile devices. We have also improved the browse menus so they are easier to navigate. Alongside this we have made the usage statistics more visible, as we are often asked about access to statistics on number of downloads. 

Following this update, the functionality of ORO, including the deposit process, should remain the same. Please do get in touch with library-research-support@open.ac.uk with any questions or comments.
