DART-Europe ist eine Vereinigung von Bibliotheken und Bibliothekskonsortien, die gemeinsam das Ziel verfolgen, den weltweiten Zugang zu europäischen Dissertationen zu verbessern. DART-Europe wird unterstützt von LIBER (Ligue des Bibliothèques Européennes de Recherche). Außerdem ist DART-Europe die Europäische Arbeitsgruppe der Networked Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (NDLTD). Die DART-Europe Partner stellen Wissenschaftlern ein zentrales europaweites Portal für die Suche nach Online-Dissertationen zur Verfügung und sie beteiligen sich aktiv an Entwicklungen zu Online-Dissertationen. DART-Europe bietet seinen Partnern Forum und Netzwerk zu Themen rund um Online-Dissertationen und kann vielleicht sogar die Möglichkeit zu kooperativ finanzierten Projekten eröffnen, die dann ein weiterer Schritt zur Realisierung von DART-Europe’s Vision für Online-Dissertationen sein können.

OAIster is a union catalog of digital resources. We provide access to these digital resources by "harvesting" their descriptive metadata (records) using OAI-PMH (the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting).
The aim of ROAR is to promote the development of open access by providing timely information about the growth and status of repositories throughout the world. Open access to research maximises research access and thereby also research impact, making research more productive and effective
We've designed a distributed system for sharing enormous datasets - for researchers, by researchers. The result is a scalable, secure, and fault-tolerant repository for data, with blazing fast download speeds.
Register & Read includes approximately 1,200 journals from more than 700 publishers, a subset of the content in JSTOR.

Established in 2003, e-LIS is an internationaldigital repository for Library and Information Science (LIS). It has grown to include a team of volunteer editors and support for 22 languages. The development of an international LIS network has been stimulated by the extension of the Open Access concept to LIS works and facilitated by the dissemination of material within the LIS community. These are some of the reasons for the success of e-LIS.
In a few years, e-LIS has been established as the largest international open repository in the field of library and information science.
