Open Peer Review: Models, Attitudes and Next Steps – a webinar from OpenUP and OpenAIRE
New models of open peer review (OPR) are emerging that open up traditional, closed processes, making them more transparent, collaborative and/or network-based. This webinar describes recent work conducted by the OpenAIRE and OpenUP projects to define models of OPR, gauges stakeholder attitudes and lays out a roadmap for future OPR implementation. It focusses on how OPR can potentially strengthen research evaluation, describing how alternative peer review tools and methods could better shape scholarly communication and how they contribute to the strengthening Open Science agenda. Specific issues included in the presentations are the variety of models; barriers/drivers for moving OPR mainstream; attitudes to OPR (what reviewers, authors and editors actually want); how to motivate and credit review work; technical infrastructure and platforms; and the next steps for researching the efficacy of different OPR models. The webinar is of interest to all with an interest in how research evaluation can better meet the aims of Open Science.

FAIR Data in Trustworthy Data Repositories Webinar
(DANS/EUDAT/OpenAIRE Webinar - Dec. 2016
Everybody wants to play FAIR, but how do we put the principles into practice? In this webinar the FAIR Guiding Principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) and the DSA (Data Seal of Approval were discussed and compared and a tangible operationalization was presented. The Webinar was co-organised by DANS, EUDAT &OpenAIRE, on 12 and 13 December, 2016. There is a growing demand for quality criteria for research datasets. In this webinar we will argue that the DSA (Data Seal of Approval for data repositories) and FAIR principles get as close as possible to giving quality criteria for research data. They do not do this by trying to make value judgements about the content of datasets, but rather by qualifying the fitness for data reuse in an impartial and measurable way. By bringing the ideas of the DSA and FAIR together, we will be able to offer an operationalization that can be implemented in any certified Trustworthy Digital Repository.
In 2014 the FAIR Guiding Principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) were formulated. The well-chosen FAIR acronym is highly attractive: it is one of these ideas that almost automatically get stuck in your mind once you have heard it. In a relatively short term, the FAIR data principles have been adopted by many stakeholder groups, including research funders.
The FAIR principles are remarkably similar to the underlying principles of DSA (2005): the data can be found on the Internet, are accessible (clear rights and licenses), in a usable format, reliable and are identified in a unique and persistent way so that they can be referred to. Essentially, the DSA presents quality criteria for digital repositories, whereas the FAIR principles target individual datasets.

How to write a Data Management Plan
Joint EUDAT-OpenAIRE webinar (July 2016)
During this EUDAT & OpenAIRE joint webinar, Sarah Jones (DCC) and Marjan Grootveld (DANS) talked through the aspects that Horizon 2020 requires from a DMP, discussing examples from real DMPs and also touching upon the Software Management Plan, which for some projects can be a sensible addition
Open research data and data management for Horizon 2020 projects
OpenAIRE Public webinar on the "Open Research Data Pilot in H2020"
This OpenAIRE Webinar provides an introduction to Research Data Management and is aimed at researcher involved in the EC's Open Research Data Pilot. Managing research data is becoming increasingly important. How can you manage your data and how can you benefit from managing your data effectively? In this webinar te basic concepts of research data management (RDM) are presented as well as tools to help writing a Data Management Plan (DMP).
Learning objectives: At the end of the session participants are be able to:
- Understand the basic principles and importance of RDM
- Set clear goals regarding data curation, preservation and sharing
- Comply with the requirements of the Research Data Pilot
- Draft a Data Management Plan
- Identify RDM resources and tools
Target audience: Introductory training for researchers, project coordinators and research administrators
