SMU’s Institutional Knowledge (InK) has just surpassed 10 million downloads - and we are celebrating not just numbers, but real-world impact.
Across the globe, government bodies, intergovernmental agencies, banks and think tanks are citing SMU research to inform decisions that shape policy, economies and societies.
- The Government of Singapore has downloaded papers directly from InK and cited SMU research in government documents.
- The National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) has cited SMU research, accessed via InK, in its publications.
- The Asian Development Bank (ADB), Organisation for Economic Co-operation & Development (OECD), United Nations, and European Central Bank are not only reading our research—they are putting them into practice.
This is knowledge in motion — from the work of our researchers to our own country, other countries outside our shore and international organisations. These citations are identified through SMU Libraries’ subscription to the Overton database.
We thank our researchers for making their work openly accessible on InK. Your contributions ensure that SMU scholarship is used to drive solutions, address societal challenges and shape a better future in Singapore and around the globe.
