The Digital Collections Services unit supports the creation, management, and dissemination of the Texas A&M University community’s scholarly, creative, and cultural heritage materials. We provide modern repository and publishing services to ensure long-term access to the university’s digital assets.
OAKTrust is Texas A&M University’s open access digital repository for collecting, preserving, and sharing the scholarly output of the University and its partners, such as Agrilife and Texas Engineering Extension Service. It expands access to research, ensures long-term preservation of digital works, supports evolving models of scholarly communication, and strengthens community understanding of the impact of higher education.
The Libraries partner with the Texas Digital Library to help Texas A&M editors and journal teams launch, host, and manage fully open-access journals. We provide guidance on editorial oversight, accessibility, and best practices to increase the visibility and impact of scholarly publishing.
