The Oxford University Research Archive has reached another significant milestone by surpassing 90,000 works by Oxford academics and researchers freely available and downloadable from the repository.
The 90,000th full text item is a journal article by a group of researchers including Oxford’s Charles Newton (Psychiatry, St John’s College) entitled: ‘Disruptions of neurological services, its causes and mitigation strategies during COVID-19: a global review’. Published Open Access in Springer’s Journal of Neurology, this article evaluates the damaging impact of travel restrictions, service closures, and fear of infection on neurological services during the course of the pandemic.
The timeliness of this research is difficult to overstate, and hence it also features within ORA’s new ‘COVID Portal’ (https://ora.ox.ac.uk/covid), alongside hundreds of other works by researchers across the University’s four divisions.
Making items Open Access removes barriers that restrict access to published work. The release of the 90,000th full text item on ORA is an enormous achievement and demonstrates the great value of the service to researchers in Oxford and around the world, who can freely benefit from the access to research papers, theses and datasets from Oxford’s brilliant minds.
