Benefits of the research repository
VU research is stored and managed in a centralised, secure and stable environment, with easy access world-wide. It locates all publications for each author in one place, producing a complete list and a permanent link for each entry.
Researchers depositing full-text items to the repository can track and review the number of times their papers are viewed and downloaded.
Submission to the repository enables researchers to meet recommendations of funding bodies, including ARC and NHMRC, to deposit research publications in an institutional or subject-based repository.
