Symplectic Repository Tools
A seamless interface to digital repository content
Symplectic offers a range of tools to link the Repository module of Symplectic Publications to your digital repository. These tools can be used with all major digital repository technologies.
Academics upload full text documents and supporting information into your repository directly from the user-friendly Symplectic Publications interface. Copyright guidance is collected automatically from SHERPA/RoMEO and made available to users.
Benefits for your repository managers and staff
- Supporting both assisted and self-deposit: your repository is kept continuously up to date by your academics, who can upload full text and supporting files directly from Symplectic Publications.
- Publication metadata is obtained automatically, removing the need for manual re-entry.
- Works with many different types of repository: doesn’t tie your institution to a specific repository technology.
Benefits for your academics:
- With an integrated system, your academics can upload their publications into the repository while enjoying all the other benefits of Symplectic Publications.
- Intuitive interface encourages high user take-up.
- A single, user-friendly system for managing publications and filling the repository.
- Full text is automatically located online, when available, with the option for instant upload to the repository.
- Copyright guidance for each publication is provided automatically.
Test the system before licensing
A test client is available from Symplectic to help your developers assess the tools.
The client simulates the requests and objects that Symplectic Publications will exchange with your repository once the tools have been licensed. This speeds up integration and is invaluable for building links with non-standard repository set-ups and bespoke systems.
