Operational adoption

Freie Universität Berlin — Refubium

Freie Universität Berlin operates Refubium as its institutional repository using the open-source DSpace platform. The repository provides public records for publications and research data; the University Library’s 2025 annual report is a populated item published in 2026 under identifier fub188/52706. The University Library’s operational documentation identifies DSpace as the repository software and says its IT department manages the application and server. A planned DSpace 8.x upgrade appeared in a funding application, but completion was not independently confirmed for this review, so no version is stated.
