*Apologies for cross-posting*
OpenAIRE (Open Access Infrastructure for Research in Europe,
*http://www.openaire.eu/
<http://www.openaire.eu/>*) is offering open webinars on OpenAIRE
compatibility for repositories with Pedro Príncipe, José Carvalho, Paolo
Manghi and Alen Vodopijevec on Tuesday, March 18 and on Tuesday, April 1.
OpenAIRE now harvests content from a range of European repositories, and
ensures raised visibility of open access content, as well as links to
project and funding information and datasets.
In order to ensure interoperability and compatibility, an integrated suite
of guidelines have been developed. The webinars will briefly outline the
OpenAIRE Guidelines (*http://guidelines.openaire.eu
<http://guidelines.openaire.eu/>*):
1.
Guidelines for Literature Repository Managers
2.
Guidelines for Data Archive Managers
3.
Guidelines for CRIS Managers.
The webinars will focus on how to implement the literature guidelines in
DSpace, EPrints and other repositories, highlighting the recent updates in
the OpenAIRE infrastructure and the main changes in the last version of the
guidelines. The latest changes in the OpenAIRE guidelines are intended to
guide repository managers to expose to the OpenAIRE infrastructure not only
the EC funded research results, but also publications funded by other national
or international funders.
*Who should attend*
We invite repository managers and administrators interested in learning
more about making their repositories compatible with the OpenAIRE
infrastructure and wanting to help their faculty to comply with the EC open
access requirements (FP7 and Horizon H2020).
*Why you should attend*
-
To find out about the different versions of the literature repository
guidelines, backwards compatibility and implementation.
-
By implementing these guidelines, repository managers will be able to
enable authors who deposit publications in their repositories to fulfill
the EC open access requirements, as well as the requirements of other
(national or international) funders. In addition it will allow the OpenAIRE
infrastructure to add value‐added services such as discoverability,
linking, and creation of enhanced publications.
-
Research managers in your institution will be able to compare your
institutional performance with the performance of other institutions in
your country and within the European Union using the OpenAIRE publication
statistics tool. You will also save time for project coordinators at your
institution.
