The University of Khartoum (UofK) is the leading higher education and research institution in Sudan. No Open Access Institutional Repository having been established yet in any Sudanese university, this is a project from the Faculty of Science, U of K, to set up and develop the first Sudanese institutional repository.

DSpace@ScienceUofK is now LIVE
The first Sudanese Institutional Repository has been released today and is now openly available at http://oascir.uofk.edu/. DSpace@ScienceUofK repository is the result of the EIFL-funded OASCIR project for carrying out an Open Access awareness-raising campaign at the Faculty of Science, University of Khartoum and setting up an institutional repository for serving researchers and professors with this affiliation.
DSpace@ScienceUofK goes live with over 175 records in its database, most of them available full-text. Along forthcoming weeks there will be an effort to increase the available number of contents filed in the repository. Some additional functionality -such as an Arabic interface- is still being developed for the repository and will
shortly be available.
