The Hong Kong Baptist University Institutional Repository (HKBU IR) is an open-access digital repository maintained by Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU), providing free online access to the scholarly output produced by the university's faculty, researchers, and students. As an institutional repository, it serves as both a preservation system and a discovery tool for academic research.
Hong Kong Baptist University was founded in 1956 as Hong Kong Baptist College and achieved full university status in 1994. The institutional repository was established by the University Library as part of a broader global movement toward open-access scholarly communication. HKBU's repository supports open access to research consistent with international standards.
The repository contains journal articles, conference papers, book chapters, theses and dissertations, research reports, and other scholarly works produced by members of the HKBU academic community. Subjects covered reflect HKBU's academic strengths, including communication studies, journalism, social sciences, business, the arts, science, and Chinese studies. The repository supports both pre-print and post-print archiving in compliance with publisher policies.
HKBU is home to the School of Communication, which has a strong reputation in journalism and media studies education in Asia. The repository contains a significant body of research on Hong Kong media, Chinese-language journalism, press freedom in Asia, digital media, and communication theory produced by the university's communication faculty and students. This makes the repository a valuable resource for researchers studying journalism and media in the Chinese and broader Asian context.
The repository is freely accessible online without registration. Users can search and browse by author, subject, department, or date. Full-text access is provided for materials where rights permit. The repository uses DSpace software and assigns persistent identifiers to deposited works to ensure long-term accessibility.
