Q. What is the Repository?

The Repository is a database providing full text files or open access links to research outputs from University of Liverpool. Contents include:

• publications by University staff (journal articles, conference papers, book chapters etc.);
• electronic theses deposited by graduating postgraduate research students.

Please note that some of these full-text files will be under an embargo, i.e. they won't be publicly available until after a certain time has elapsed.

Who can access it?

Access to research outputs through the Repository is available to everyone. You do not have to log in to view or download them. You can search from the Repository home page, from where you can also Browse for items by Year and Item Type.

Items in the Repository can also be accessed through links via Library Search or search engines, such as Google.

For depositors, guidance on adding full text files or links to open access versions of outputs should be uploaded via Liverpool Elements.
