DSpace CRIS
DSpace CRIS
The most mature form of research management — from repository to a full Current Research Information System
What is DSpace CRIS?
DSpace CRIS is the next step in the development of a university’s research infrastructure – going far beyond the functions of a classic institutional repository. Where a repository collects and provides access to publications, DSpace CRIS manages the entirety of research output and activity: publications, research projects, patents, researcher profiles and the network of connections between them. It is the most mature form a university can implement – combining a proven open source platform developed by the global academic community with the demands of modern research, evaluation and openness. The system supports the principles of Open Science and ensures high visibility and long-term impact of research results.
Key benefits
A single, coherent source of data on all the university’s scientific and research activity — not just publications
