UPCommons, the UPC institutional repository that collects, manages and disseminates the university's teaching and research production in open access, has obtained the FECYT Open Access Repository Quality Label.
Its new interface offers a more modern, intuitive and fast navigation, with visual indicators of the type of document and access conditions, and new metrics such as PlumX and Dimensions, which are added to Altmetrics and Scopus citations. The improved search allows you to view results in a list or grid, apply filters by facets and navigate through thematic trees such as the UPC Areas or the Sustainable Development Goals.

Improvements have also been introduced in usage statistics, with new beta reports that show accesses by city or university and the possibility of subscribing to communities or collections to receive notifications.

All information about the repository is available in the new UPCommons Biblioguia.
