Apologies for cross-posting:

Expand the visibility and reach of your work by making it available
via SSOAR – Social Sciences Open Access Repository – www.ssoar.info !

If you wish to make your documents available via a repository, there
are a number of good reasons for choosing SSOAR:

- SSOAR is geared towards a scholarly audience in the social sciences
wishing to search quality-controlled content across disciplinary
boundaries and to access documents directly and free of charge.

- SSOAR is an important resource for German, English and Spanish-
speaking social scientists who wish to make documents freely
accessible to the research community in order to increase the
visibility and citation frequency of their research papers.

- SSOAR offers unrestricted world-wide access to full texts – all with
a standard browser.

- Each document has an individual URN (Uniform Resource Name), thereby
facilitating reliable referencing adhering to scientific standards.

- Additional subject metadata ensures that documents can be sought and
found easily. A simple Google search request suffices.

- Cross-linking with other resources such as portals
(www.sowiport.de ) and disciplinary databases enlarges the searchable
content.

- SSOAR is networked within the growing Open Access community and
guarantees technological innovativeness.

The document-deposit process comprises five easy steps and you can
either self-archive your papers at:
http://www.ssoar.info/ssoar/SuggestResource?domain=ssoar-typo3

Or we can archive the papers for you – if you have any questions
relating to self-archiving, please contact Agnieszka Wenninger of the
SSOAR team (agnieszka.wennin...@gesis.org).

I will be happy to give you advice and to assist you with the deposit
process.

We look forward to your submissions to SSOAR!

Best regards

Agnieszka Wenninger
