• The journal literature is full of crap' -& unfindable!!! - 'the situation is close to criminal

• Kill the journal

• Kill impact factors

• Articles allowed as supplement to data

• Open science not open access

• Scientists cannot innovate

• Data stewardship, not management, is key to open science

• Researchers should spent 5% of budget on data stewardship

• FAIR

“their role is that of enablers: “Libraries have adapted their role and are now active in the preservation, curation, publication and dissemination of digital scientific materials, in the form of publications, data and other research-related content. Libraries and repositories constitute the physical infrastructure that allows scientists to share use and reuse the outcome of their work, and they have been essential in the creation of the Open Science movement” (OECD, 2015)

Open Research Ireland (ORI)

• Established to seek more defined role in implementation of Open Science in Ireland

• Librarians active in research support & on NOAC

# Top Level Action Science Europe Principle

1.1 Grant information available in consistent format from all funders

Make data on publicallyfunded research publically available

1.2 Endorse ORCID adoption at national level Adopt global UIs for researcher ID

1.3 Monitor & engage with emerging Orgld Engaging with CrossRef

1.4 Encourage better integration of DOIs withinlocal systems & workflows

1.5 APC data available for all

2.1 Refresh RIAN extend remit beyond OA

3.1 National CERIF-compliant CRIS

WG 3: Principles for Open Research in Ireland

1. Open research data improves the quality of research and innovation

2. Publically funded knowledge is used to benefit the whole of society and create public value

3. Research data should be freely available to everyone to use and republish as they wish without restrictions from copyright, patents or other mechanisms of control

WG 3: Principles Continued4. Open research must be supported by extensive

development of the capacity of researchers, librarians and data specialists

5. Good data management is fundamental to high quality research and should be established early on in the research process via Data Management Plans

6. Research data should be as open as possible and as closed as necessary

7. Every effort should be taken to increase interoperability within and across domain boundaries and where reasonable to enable res-use of intelligent machine agents

Conclusions

• Librarians and libraries are part of the Open Science infrastructure in Ireland

• Position to play the “enabling” role within research institutions and wider community

• Consistency from funders

• National approach to data management plans
