Abstract (english)

Having recognized the need for a national digital asset management infrastructure, SRCE – University of Zagreb University Computing Centre in association with a number of research and higher education institutions in Croatia built a national repository system called DABAR – Digital academic archives and repositories. DABAR provides research and higher education institutions with the common infrastructure necessary to establish a secure, reliable and interoperable institutional repositories in a simple way. Dabar allows institutions to manage their digital assets without the need to deal with technical issues related to the implementation and maintenance of digital repositories. Until the middle of March 2017, DABAR was used to build two national repositories and 109 repositories of Croatian research and higher education institutions. Currently, it supports curation of electronic theses and dissertations, and papers published in electronic journals. The support for conference papers, book chapters, artistic works (photographs and other audio - visual objects) is being actively developed and a plan to build a support for managing research data sets and educational resources is in place. The DABAR platform and the community gathered around it are actively promoting Open Access to the results of research and to educational modules and resources.
