Project ODUN
Project goals
• A pilot establishment of a national
infrastructure for open access to intellectual
production of Slovene universities.
• Content is available to domestic and foreign
users from web and mobile applications.
• Integration of existing digital collections into
partner repositories.
• Project partners: University of Ljubljana,
University of Primorska, University of Nova
Gorica and University of Maribor.

Repositories:
- consist of full texts and metadata,
- conected with COBISS and SICRIS,
- Included in DART-Europe, compatible with OpenAIRE,
- recommendation of similar works within repositories and between
repositories, Dlib and Videolectures.NET.
Achievements
• A national approach to building of open access infrastructure.
• Web and mobile application for university repositories and the national
open science portal. Presentation of content is customized for users with
visual and cognitive disabilities.
• Templates for legal base about filling publications from students and
employments is developped for all partner institutions.
• Development of adapted processes for filling publications from students and
employments on all partner institutions.
• Open Aire compatibility is established to facilitate in registration, discovery,
access and re-use of research publications and research data, in particular
in the context of Horizon 2020 funded projects across European countries.
• Integration with COBISS, SICRIS, higher education information system,
university information systems and university autethication systems.
• Plagiarism detection software is developed and included into processes for
filling publications from students and employments.
• Recommendation system of similar works within repositories and between
repositories, Dlib and Videolectures.NET is developed.
Benefits
• Open access to results of study and research
activities of universities, resulting in greater
impact (citation),
• consequentially better utilization
rate of research funding from public funds,
• number of visits is one of
the criteria for calculation of university
ranking on Webometrics list
(http://www.webometrics.info/).
