Khazar University Library Information Center - Khazar University Institutional Repository

The Khazar University Institutional Repository (KUIR), a suite of services offered by the Library Information Center, is an institutional repository (at http://dspace.khazar.org) maintained to support the university's researchers, collaborators, and students. Repository content consists of collections of research materials in digital format produced and selected by Khazar University faculty and their collaborators. The Khazar University Library Information Center manages, preserves and distributes these collections through DSpace software. Materials include pre- and post-prints copies of scholarly articles, theses and dissertations, as well as materials included in those articles, such as images, videos, and datasets.

The July 2010 World Repository Ranking listed KUIR as the only repository in the Caucasus or Central Asia in the top 800 worldwide repositories. KUIR does well even in comparison with reposition in more developed countries.

Famous quotes containing the words university and/or repository:

    In the United States, it is now possible for a person eighteen years of age, female as well as male, to graduate from high school, college, or university without ever having cared for, or even held, a baby; without ever having comforted or assisted another human being who really needed help. . . . No society can long sustain itself unless its members have learned the sensitivities, motivations, and skills involved in assisting and caring for other human beings.
    Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)

    I cannot consent that my mortal body shall be laid in a repository prepared for an Emperor or a King—my republican feelings and principles forbid it—the simplicity of our system of government forbids it.
    Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
