UQ eSpace is The University of Queensland's institutional digital repository for publications, research, and teaching materials. Deposited material covers a very wide range of subjects and disciplines.
The repository holds the electronic full text of many peer-reviewed published articles and conference papers, as well as book chapters, theses and other forms of written research from UQ academic staff and postgraduate students. It contains 'grey literature' such as working and discussion papers, technical reports and some preprints. Research datasets, sound and image collections, multimedia, software and other forms of research data are also held. Learning objects and other course-related materials are welcome. Some publications may be citation only because of copyright issues. For depositors anxious about copyright, the policies of the major journal publishers regarding copyright can be checked at SHERPA. Policies of many publishers, including Australian publishers, can also be checked in the OAKList database. The University of Queensland staff can also provide information.
UQ eSpace provides free, searchable access to openly available UQ research, publications and teaching materials and manages their long-term archiving.
UQ staff and students must log in to deposit materials. Log in with your usual UQ log in username and password. Browsing and searching can be done without logging in.
UQ eSpace is running on Fez software. Fez is part of a wider project entitled eScholarshipUQ, which is the local testbed for the Australian Partnership for Sustainable Repositories. The aim of this DEST-funded project is to make all of UQ's openly available research visible, accessible and usable over the long term. The project also aims to make UQ's research visible and accessible through a global network of services such as OAIster, ARROW, Google Scholar and Internet search engines. See the Fez Wiki for more information.
