ZU Scholars

ZU Scholars Institutional Repository (https://zuscholars.zu.ac.ae)

ZU Scholars is an institutional repository for all Zayed University's research, scholarship and creative works, including research articles, conference proceedings, working papers, student works and more. In addition to full text files, ZU Scholars can also accommodate non-textual content such as images, audio and video. The repository is managed by the Zayed University Library.

The Library imports metadata for new Zayed University publications regularly from Scopus. The Library also adds full text files for Creative Commons licensed works. Other works and files must be submitted manually.
