With one of the focus areas of the library being the promotion of open access to research done at the University of Pretoria, the library is once again during this week participating in the worldwide Open Access celebrations.
The University of Pretoria’s repository UPSpace which houses the OpenUP collection, currently appears amongst the top 300 (position 296) Institutional repositories on the Ranking Web of World Repositories.
An interesting article was published on how the rankings of open access repositories are done.
OpenUp is one of the collections within UPSpace that houses the full text of published research articles authored and co-authored by UP staff and students.
You can learn more about OpenUP by reading or downloading the library's OpenUP brochure,watch a YouTube video on the benefits of Open Access and learn more about what you as a researcher can do to promote open access at your institution.
