[ANPPOM-Lista] zenodo: the eu open-science platform

[Carlos Palombini]

Dada a existência de Academia.edu, ResearchGate e Mendeley pode-se
perguntar por que mais uma plataforma de auto-arquivamento. O fato é que
Academia.edu combina as características do acesso aberto e do
auto-arquivamento com as de uma rede social e é de fato uma empresa
lucrativa com o capital de 17,8 milhões de dólares, enquanto ResearchGate
foi descrito pelo New York Times como "uma mistura de Facebook, Twitter e
LinkedIn" e está manifestamente voltado para a área médica e as ciências
biológicas. (A propósito, a combinação de rede de pesquisa com rede social
é uma excelente forma de divulgação da pesquisa). Já Mendeley foi comprado
por Elsevier em 2012, o que levou Peter Suber a revogar sua recomendação da
plataforma no ano seguinte.

Zenodo é uma das plataformas recomendadas por Suber, junto com Open.Depot e
Figshare. Sobre Suber: https://goo.gl/6i9a0b.

Sobre Zenodo:

*Passionate about Open Science!*

Built and developed by researchers, to ensure that everyone can join in
Open Science.

The OpenAIRE project, in the vanguard of the open access and open data
movements in Europe was commissioned by the EC to support their nascent
Open Data policy by providing a catch-all repository for EC funded
research. CERN, an OpenAIRE partner and pioneer in open source, open access
and open data, provided this capability and Zenodo was launched in May
2013.

In support of its research programme CERN has developed tools for Big Data
management and extended Digital Library capabilities for Open Data. Through
Zenodo these Big Science tools could be effectively shared with the
long­-tail of research.

*Open Science knows no borders!*

The need for a catch-all is not restricted to one funder, or one nation, so
the concept caught on, and Zenodo rapidly started welcoming research from
all over the world, and from every discipline.

The digital revolution has necessitated a re­tooling of the scholarly
processes to handle data and software, but this is proceeding at varying
speeds across different communities, disciplines, and nations. To ensure no
one is left behind through lack of access to the necessary tools and
resources, Zenodo makes the sharing, curation and publication of data and
software a reality for all researchers.

*Every last detail*

To fully understand and reproduce research performed by others, it is
necessary to have all the details. In the digital age, that means all the
digital artefacts, which are all welcomed in Zenodo.

To be an effective catch­-all, that eliminates barriers to adopting data
sharing practices, Zenodo does not impose any requirements on format, size,
access restrictions or licence. Quite literally we wish there to be no
reason for researchers not to share!

Data, software and other artefacts in support of publications may be the
core, but equally welcome are the materials associated with the
conferences, projects or the institutions themselves, all of which are
necessary to understand the scholarly process.

*Don't wait until the publication date!*

Publication may happen months or years after completion of the research, so
collecting together all the research artefacts at that stage to publish
openly is often challenging. Zenodo therefore offers the possibility to
house closed and restricted content, so that artefacts can be captured and
stored safely whilst the research is ongoing, such that nothing is missing
when they are openly shared later in the research workflow.

Additionally, to help publishing, research materials for the review process
can be safely uploaded to Zenodo in restricted records and then protected
links can be shared with the reviewers. Content can also be embargoed and
automatically opened when the associated paper is published.

To support all these use cases, the simple web interface is supplemented by
a rich API which allows third ­party tools and services to use Zenodo as a
backend in their workflow

*Open Science Services*

Zenodo helps researchers receive credit by making the research results
citable and through OpenAIRE integrates them into existing reporting lines
to funding agencies like the European Commission. Citation information is
also passed to DataCite and onto the scholarly aggregators.

*For future generations*

The scholarly communication landscape is undergoing change, there are
debates about the ideal services, the ideal business models, the ideal
custodians, amidst which Zenodo aims to offer a viable and concrete
alternative to commercial services from a memory institution for particle
physics, CERN!
