Welcome to the Registry of Open Access Repositories
We had a major storage controller failure, which led to the harvesting service failing. We are in the process of recovering data and restarting the harvesting. This failure only affects the tracking of content growth. New repostories should continue to be registered as they are all being fully processed as previously.
We are doing everything we can to bring the service back to normal and we apologise for the interruption to the service.
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. More information...
