3. Main Goals
Deliver “an electronic infrastructure and supporting
mechanisms for the identification, deposition, access,
and monitoring of FP7 and ERC funded articles”
Additionally, offer “a special repository for articles
that can be stored neither in institutional nor in
subject-based/thematic repositories”.
All deposited articles will be visible and freely
accessible worldwide through a new portal to the
products of EU-funded research, built as part of this
project.
