"Sonar"- the archive of scientific publications

"SONAR" (Swiss Open Access Repository) is an archive of scientific publications.

 

 

 

About the project

It collects and promotes publications by authors from Swiss public research institutions according to the FAIR principles of "Findable", "Accessible", "Interoperable" and "Reusable". "SONAR" aggregates content and metadata from international sources and from institutional repositories (IR) of Swiss universities. In addition, "SONAR" offers universities an "IR hosting service" that serves as a research publication platform. Here, researchers can store their publications directly.
