Research repositories
DSpace Repository Service
DSpace repository services for institutional research, theses, publications, datasets, heritage collections, and sustainable digital stewardship.
The service
Designed as an institutional system—not an isolated installation.
Sothik IT designs DSpace around the institution’s communities, collections, metadata, deposit roles, review workflow, access policy, discovery requirements, storage, and preservation responsibilities.
