The BioSharing Registry: connecting data policies, standards & databases in life sciences | RDA

abernard102@gmail.com 2015-09-20

Summary:

"The products of this WG will be principles for linking information about databases, content standards and journal and funder policies in the life sciences, and a curated and prototype registry, to access and cross-search the information, on which a variety of stakeholders can base their decisions. Specifically, journals, researchers and funders will be able to recommend or select mature and community endorsed databases and standards, and developers and curators of repositories and content standards will be aware of the requirements they need to meet to ensure their products are discoverable and well described so that they can be used by researchers or recommended by journals and funders.   To ensure a manageable project size and delivery within the 18-month timeframe, the WG will leverage the existing BioSharing initiative, already embedded into international infrastructure programmes.The principles and the registry, however, will be developed in a way that is extendable to other areas of science. This use cases-driven WG is a joint effort with Force11 and it is led and constituted by prospective adopters as well as technical implementers, many of whom are also leading and/or actively involved in other relevant RDA IGs and WGs, whose activities this WG complements and with which this WG will work closely. For more details, refer to the Case Statement, see file below ..."
