We are pleased to announce the Go-Live of Cornell University Library's new DSpace-CRIS platform:Cornell eCommons.
This milestone marks an important step forward for an institution that has long been a global leader in scientific innovation. For 4Science, it is an honour to support Cornell in a modernization effort that strengthens its mission and contributes to the construction of the international Open Science landscape.
The platform
Built on the latest release of DSpace-CRIS, and hosted on 4Science powerful cloud based on AWS, the new platform delivers a fully updated experience: enhanced performance, faster response times, and optimized management of large-scale research collections. The redesigned interface improves usability and content discovery. A more modern infrastructure means a repository that is not only more powerful but also more open, interoperable, and aligned with global best practices for scholarly information management.
The future
With DSpace-CRIS, Cornell University Library provides the global community with a vast body of long-term digital assets closely connected to the academic and institutional life of the university, spanning disciplines, schools, and research centers and encompassing a wide variety of scholarly outputs (articles, datasets, teaching materials, and more). Full access to this content is a concrete step toward a more transparent, collaborative, and impact-driven research model.
4Science's support
For 4Science, strengthening the value of knowledge sharing means continuously advancing cutting-edge technological solutions, tailored support services, and sustained efforts to improve accessibility. Supporting institutions of Cornell's caliber is both a responsibility and a constant motivation to push the boundaries of the tools that serve the research community worldwide. The Go-Live of the new DSpace-CRIS platform reflects a shared achievement: a faster, more robust, and more user friendly repository designed to amplify academic impact and empower researchers.
We are delighted to celebrate this milestone together and remain committed to supporting the global research community with advanced, open, and reliable technologies!
