🌿 Why AskOS? It is an acronym, yet in the past it was an ancient vase used in ancient Greece and Italy for storing small quantities of precious oils, such as beauty and lamp oils. AsKOS drawns inspiration from this symbolic object: just like the vase would spark the fire of the oil lamps and provide light, our service wants to nurture the future of knowledge, which is fed by open access to academic research.
