Abstract
Institutional repositories are currently an effective way to store scientific publications of the university teaching staff and provide open access to researchers. The platform with registration option has a single point of access to scientific information, which allow to conduct a comprehensive search for information within the framework of an extensive search field, including Kazakhstan. Having an institutional repository allows a particular university to join the extensive list of global networks and participate in institutional rankings.
One such platform is OpenDOAR (http://v2.sherpa.ac.uk/opendoar/), an international open directory of free access resources. More than four thousand repositories are registered in the catalog. Nine universities in Kazakhstan have registered their repositories in the OpenDOAR platform.
The article considers the possibilities of repositories for open access to scientific achievements of scientists in Kazakhstan.
