An '''open repository''' or '''open-access repository''' is a digital platform that holds research output and provides free, immediate and permanent access to research results for anyone to use, download and distribute. To facilitate [[open access]] such repositories must be [[interoperable]] according to the [[Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting]] (OAI-PMH). [[Search engines]] harvest the content of open access repositories, constructing a database of worldwide, free of charge available research.<ref>{{cite book| last1 = Jacobs | first1 = Neil| title = Open Access: Key Strategic, Technical and Economic Aspects| publisher = Elsevier| date = 2006| pages = 11| url = https://www.elsevier.com/books/open-access/jacobs/978-1-84334-203-8| isbn = 9781843342038 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |url=https://open-research-europe.ec.europa.eu/for-authors/data-guidelines#selectarepository |title=Open Data, Software and Code Guidelines |access-date=2022-04-05 |website=open-research-europe.ec.europa.eu}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=About – Open Repositories |url=https://www.openrepositories.org/about/ |access-date=2022-04-05 |website=www.openrepositories.org}}</ref>
