It is an interoperable institutional open repository, notably with HAL, and searchable by other repositories.

The submission of full-text publication in OSKAR Bordeaux are about the five higher education institutions of Bordeaux: the University of Bordeaux, the University of Bordeaux-Montaigne, Sciences Po Bordeaux, Bordeaux INP, and Bordeaux Sciences Agro, as well as public scientific institutions and technological partners (EPST).

All the joint research units (UMR) and the research teams (EA) affiliated with these five higher education institutions and to the EPST partners and supervisors are part of the OSKAR scope.

Examination of the contents of OSKAR Bordeaux is free, open and accessible to all.

The launch of OSKAR Bordeaux started in February 2020 and will gradually be opened up to all research units.
