Welcome to MiTOS Open Archive System.

• When freely accessible scientific works are used, they become knowledge again and the original knowledge that is generated improves without losing its authenticity. In this respect, the idea of creating an open archieve is unavoidable. By the help of this archive, not only access to information and knowledge, but also the passing of information that is created at an institutional level to next generations by saving and storing such information is aimed.


• It will be a very time consuming project for university information center employees, who have undertaken an important duty of forwarding the rapidly increasing resources to academic units, to create such an Open Archive by reaching the university’s staff and taking the articles and texts from each one, alongside their heavy workloads. In our system, passwords are given to users and therefore their access to the system is enabled. And by this way, with the distributed data collection system, the information center employees will only verify or control the process.


• ANKOS has started the "National Intercollegiate Open Access Project" of Turkey.


• Our aim is to provide other academic institutions in our country to create open archive databases for their publications and documents through this website and while an Open Archive system at a national level is developing, to provide the accessibility of the system from other systems with international standards, as soon as the data entry is made.


• The software system which has been developed entirely by using only local resources is upgraded or updated with respect to possible demands from institutions and the developments in the international standards.


• The usage of "National Intercollegiate Open Access Project" started on November 2009.
