Tiger Scholar Commons

Tiger Scholar Commons is the Institutional Repository of Savannah State University.

Our mission is to collect, preserve, and provide access to the creative and scholarly output of the University community. Maintaining a central repository of digital works encourages the exchange of research across disciplines and will increase the university’s visibility, status, and public value on a global level. Tiger Scholar Commons is a service of Asa H. Gordon Library and is a partner in the statewide Georgia Knowledge Repository (GKR), a GALILEO initiative.
