Webinar: How and where can you archive your research data?

In this webinar, you will get a short introduction to the FAIR-principles, and how and where you can archive your research data. The webinar is planned for 20.09.2024 at 10.15–11.00.

You can read more here: How and where can you archive your research data? | University of Bergen Library | UiB

The goal of the University of Bergen is that data resulting from research activity should be made readily available for reuse in accordance with FAIR-principles. Researchers are encouraged to make their data openly available as early as possible in the research process

Sharing and re-using quality-assured research data is considered good scientific practice. Most funders, e.g. Norwegian Research Council or Horizon Europe, and publishers require that the research data from a project is made openly available. The saying is «as open as possible, as restricted as necessary», meaning that research data should be openly available unless prevented by legitimate considerations relating to security, protection of personal privacy, IPR or trade secrets.
