At E-RIHS, We believe in Open Science and Open Publications!

We provide an opportunity to ensure the long-term preservation and increased re-use of heritage science data within broader European frameworks, and beyond. A data-curation policy with recommendations was elaborated, following the framework provided by the FAIR principles but interpreting them in the context of heritage science. The policy recommends that E-RIHS users be required to complete a Data Management Plan as a condition of support for access to all E-RIHS facilities.

FAIR principles – Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable – are fundamental to our vision.
