Survey about research data and open publishing practices for researchers | Kirjastoikkuna

"Tampere University Library in cooperation with the University’s Open Science work group is conducting a survey about open access publishing and opening of research data. The survey is aimed at researchers and teachers. Its target is to find out the current practices of openness at the University of Tampere as well as to figure out how to develop the services supporting open science. The survey is open until 31 March 2017.

The survey is connected to promoting open science and research at the University of Tampere and following broader trends in open science. The principles of publishing research results and opening research data were written in the University’s Publication and data policy last autumn. Furthermore, open access publishing and self-archiving is required from the researchers, according to the Rector’s Decision on 11 March 2016.

One of the tasks of the University Library is to actively promote open science by offering the researchers services for open publishing and research data management."
