ROVok

ROVok is a web-based platform designed to facilitate the creation, sharing, and discussion of research outputs. It was developed by the Center for Open Science (COS) and is intended to serve as an open repository for research papers, datasets, and other scholarly materials. The platform aims to promote transparency, reproducibility, and collaboration in the research community by making research outputs easily accessible and citable.

ROVok allows researchers to upload their work, which is then assigned a unique identifier, known as a DOI (Digital Object Identifier). This identifier ensures that the work can be cited and referenced consistently. The platform also provides tools for version control, allowing researchers to update and manage different versions of their work over time.

One of the key features of ROVok is its integration with other research tools and platforms. It can be linked with citation managers, repositories, and other scholarly communication tools, making it easier for researchers to manage their work and track its impact. ROVok also supports open access, allowing researchers to make their work freely available to the public.

The platform is designed to be user-friendly, with a straightforward interface that makes it easy for researchers to upload and manage their work. It also provides features for collaboration, such as the ability to share work with colleagues and receive feedback.

ROVok is part of a broader movement towards open science, which advocates for greater transparency, accessibility, and collaboration in the research process. By providing a platform for the open sharing of research outputs, ROVok contributes to this movement by making research more accessible and reproducible.
