Using OES for projects and collaborative research
The Open Encyclopedia System is used by a number of academic projects, institutions and collaborative research initiatives to create and publish an online reference work. The following overview lists current projects that we, as the OES team (Digital Research Infrastructures, FUB-IT) have been actively involved in. Read more on the FUB-IT project page.
