OpenScholar Retirement

OpenScholar retirement

OpenScholar was retired in November 2025. After that date, sites are no longer accessible and data cannot be recovered. If you recently found that your former site is no longer available and want to recover its content, you may be able to find a snapshot or archived copy on the Internet Archive or in the Harvard Library web archives. If a version of your site exists there, you can copy the visible text and images and use them to rebuild your site on HarvardSites.

Try these web archive options to recover public web content:

You can also request a new HarvardSites website. Follow your School’s website request process. If you are approved for a site, see the Getting Started section on the HarvardSites Drupal User Guide.
