The University of Ljubljana successfully pursues European Commission activities regarding open science by including a provision on open science in the new Statute, organising a conference on open science, with the Repository of the University of Ljubljana, as well as by participating in the openaccess.si portal and OpenAIRE2020 project.

To enable access to electronic information sources of the most prominent international publishers, we participated in nine Slovenian consortia in 2016. Students, lecturers and researchers have at their disposal a wide selection of top quality electronic information sources which may be accessed through the Digital Library of the University of Ljubljana portal using discovery tool of the latest generation.
Processes for submitting, identifying content similarity and sending final works of studies from student information systems to the Repository of the University of Ljubljana and to the document information system were aligned with the Rules on content similarity detection of the electronic form of the written final work of studies and on provisions regarding temporary inaccessibility of the content of the written final work of studies.
We organised a conference with the Ministry of Education, Science and Sport entitled Open Science in the European Research Area. Furthermore, we participated in the management of a national information portal for open access, openaccess.si, and in a working group for open access at the Ministry of Education, Science and Sport.
