The University of California’s eScholarship Repository has recently exceeded five million full-text downloads, according to the university.
The eScholarship Repository, a service of the California Digital Library, allows scholars in the University of California system to submit their work to a central location where any users may easily access it free of charge. The idea is to ease communication between researchers.
Catherine Mitchell, acting director of the CDL publishing group, says the number shows that both content seekers and creators have embraced the service, allaying concerns among researchers that others wouldn’t contribute to the repository. —Hurley Goodall
