Atrium Repository: diffusion of cardiology knowledge

The Instituto Nacional de Cardiologia (INC), a public tertiary referral cardiology center located in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, aims to structure and organize all available institutional data into one single space that is easily accessible to its workers and also to the wider scientific community and the general public. At present, these data are dispersed in different sources, with little accessibility and low safety . International experience suggests the most adequate way to preserve the institutional memory and to diffuse knowledge is through a structure called a repository. Technological tools make the creation of a repository easier nowadays. Our Project aims to structure ATRIUM, INC’s institutional repository. The ATRIUM will store all relevant institutional data and allow members of the public safe and timely access to it.
