If you wish to make your documents available via a repository, there are a number of good reasons for choosing SSOAR:
- SSOAR is geared towards a scholarly audience in the social sciences wishing to search quality-controlled content across disciplinary boundaries and to access documents directly and free of charge.
- SSOAR is an important resource for German, English and Spanish-speaking social scientists who wish to make documents freely accessible to the research community in order to increase the visibility and citation frequency of their research papers.
- SSOAR offers unrestricted world-wide access to full texts - all with a standard browser.
- Each document has an individual URN (Uniform Resource Name), thereby facilitating reliable referencing adhering to scientific standards.
- Additional subject metadata ensures that documents can be sought and found easily. A simple Google search request suffices.
- Cross-linking with other resources such as portals (www.sowiport.de) and disciplinary databases enlarges the searchable content.
- SSOAR is networked within the growing Open Access community and guarantees technological innovativeness.
The document-deposit process comprises five easy steps and you can either self-archive your papers at:
http://www.ssoar.info/ssoar/SuggestResource?domain=ssoar-typo3&lang=en
Or we can archive the papers for you - if you have any questions relating to self-archiving, please contact Agnieszka Wenninger of the SSOAR team (agnieszka.wenninger @gesis.org).
I will be happy to give you advice and to assist you with the deposit process.
We look forward to your submissions to SSOAR!
