"KURA" (Kanazawa University Repository for Academic Resources) celebrated the 20th anniversary of its launch on June 12, 2026.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to everyone who contributed to the establishment, operation, and content registration of KURA.
To commemorate 20th anniversary, we have released an Open Access (OA) promotional video, "The Golden Key, the Green Key: An Introduction to OA.”

We hope that you will continue to make use of KURA in advancing open access to research outputs.
