RISS

RISS, the Research Information Sharing Service, is a public academic information platform operated by the Korea Education and Research Information Service (KERIS). It helps people discover and use scholarly resources produced, held, or subscribed to by universities across South Korea. Bringing domestic and international research together, RISS supports students, researchers, and other users seeking reliable academic materials.

The service offers search and discovery across degree theses, Korean and overseas journal articles, academic journals, books, research reports, and open lectures. Users can explore current and popular materials, manage saved papers and reading lists, and check their service access rights. RISS also provides guidance on accessing different resource types, including overseas electronic materials, and offers overseas document delivery and interlibrary copy or loan services. Additional features include research and usage statistics, topic analyses, and APIs that connect users and institutions with academic information and lecture data. Through its help center, service guides, and accessibility information, RISS supports a broad range of research needs and makes shared academic resources easier to find and use.
