ZivaHub is the University of Cape Town's institutional open access data repository. It houses scholarly outputs such as books, conference contributions, datasets, figures, journal contributions, media, online resources, posters, preprints, presentations, and software. The platform was launched in 2017 and is managed by UCT Libraries according to UCT's Open Access Policy and UCT's Research Data Management Policy. The Digital Library Services department (DLS), together with the UCT-wide network of Data Stewards that it convenes, actively curates the submissions to ZivaHub. The repository allows researchers to securely store and share research data supporting other scholarly outputs. 'Ziva' is a Shona word meaning 'to know.'
