One of the highlights with regards to open access this year has been the
movement of SUNScholar to the number one position in Africa in the July
edition of the ranking of open access repositories performed by “The
Ranking Web of World Repositories”. The use of SUNScholar is also
increasing steadily, growing from approximately 104 000 downloads of
theses, dissertations and articles in 2013, to a projected 142 000
downloads this year. According to usage statistics, 6 out of 10 of the most
popular items downloaded are from the field of Economic and Management
Sciences.
