In accordance with the Platform for Open Science prescribed by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development, the Institute for Literature and Arts has established a digital institutional repository of papers DIRIKUM, which enables Open Access to its scientific publications. The repository includes all scientific results of the previous project cycle (2011-2019), as well as all future papers and publications resulting from the work of new institute departments (2020-). The main goals of establishing the institutional repository are greater visibility of scientific results, their availability, and transparency for further research, as well as increasing the citation of scientific researchers. Scientific results include all papers published in scientific journals or conference proceedings, announcements from scientific gatherings, conferences, symposia, published in whole or in part, scientific monographs, doctoral dissertations, etc. Open access levels are defined in the Platform by the Ministry. Researchers can find papers in the repository using advanced search by various criteria: year of publication, department, project, author, or result type. Download statistics will be available on the site, as well as export of various reports after papers are entered.
The digital repository site of the Institute for Literature and Arts (IKUM), DIRIKUM, is supported by the EPrints 3 platform, open-source software developed by the University of Southampton.
