Collections: each collection represents a specific category of research-related data, such as collaborators, publications, units, and journals. There are four collections in IRIS:

  1. People: this collection includes the collaborators in IRIS. You can search for repository members and view their researcher profiles.

  2. Publications: this section gathers all deposited works and provides access to their metadata.

  3. Units: this collection lists the research units. It also allows you to access their profiles to view their information and related publications.

  4. Journals: in this section, you will find all journals and periodicals linked to a publication in the repository.
