Repositories

In repositories, digital content is stored on a long-term basis and made available to either a limited or a broader group of users.

In addition to being published at their place of origin, academic journals and other text publications are often held in institutional or subject-specific repositories so as to ensure worldwide open access. Such repositories are now being increasingly developed as places for the initial publication of research results, too.

The following lists will help you find out which repositories are available for publishing texts or data:
