Introduction to OASIS Institutional Repository
OASIS (Open Access System for Information Sharing) is POSTECH’s institutional repository focused on the global dissemination and sharing of the university’s research output.
It securely collects and preserves academic materials produced by faculty, students, and researchers, and provides open access to all users, both within and outside the university.
Roles and Functions of OASIS
- Global Dissemination of Research Output
- OASIS helps increase citation counts by making academic materials openly available to researchers worldwide.
- It enhances the visibility of scholarly works and strengthens the academic impact of individual researchers.
- Free Access Service Based on Open Access Principles
- Full-text academic materials registered in OASIS are provided free of charge.
- By fostering a transparent and open research environment, OASIS expands the reach and impact of knowledge.
- Registration and Preservation of Various Academic Materials
- Registrable materials: Dissertations, journal articles, conference presentations, research reports, etc.
- Management and preservation: Researchers can register materials directly, and the Academic Information Team regularly collects and manages content.
Key Features of OASIS
- Continuous preservation of materials: Valuable academic materials are preserved safely and without damage.
- Convenient accessibility: Anyone around the world can access the materials anytime, anywhere, without restriction.
- Promotion of research collaboration: Researchers with diverse academic backgrounds can collaborate based on the shared materials.
Registration and Usage Guide
- Submission Process: Materials approved through the university’s Research Information Management System (RIMS) are automatically synchronized and published on OASIS.
- Access and Use: Users can easily search for registered materials and download them from OASIS for academic and research purposes.
Benefits of Open Access
