What is Research Catalogue?
Research Catalogue (RC) is a non-commercial, multimedia platform for artistic research and activities. With more than 14,000 registered users, the RC is currently the most widely used digital platform for this purpose. RC supports integrated presentations of audio, images, video and text, and facilitates sharing and collaboration. The platform also has peer-review functionality, which means that the platform can be used for journals, applications, student submissions and more.
RC allows institutions to create portals with content that is publically available and internal portals with access control. At NTNU, the public portal is primarily used to document and showcase artistic research, while the internal portals are used for teaching and student submission at the departmentas.
