LCT: An easy and automatic approach in license clearance

The demo session will cover technical solutions developed by NI4OS-Europe partners to support the practices of EOSC stakeholders, including the global research community working in Open and FAIR ecosystems. Brief overviews for the tools realization will be provided while pointing out their significance in RDM workflows at both strategic/policy and practical implementation levels. The session is intended for an audience aware of research practices, the research lifecycle, EOSC resources onboarding, FAIR principles and will be particularly interesting for individuals dealing with EOSC RoP. The tools are:

1. License Clearance Tool - LCT (https://lct.ni4os.eu/) 
2. Repository Policy Generator - RePOL (https://repol.ni4os.eu/)
3. EOSC RoP Legal & Ethics Compliance – RoLECT (https://rolect.ni4os.eu/) 

This is the presentation of the LCT. LCT ensures maximal re-use of derivative works. LCT facilitates and automates the clearance of research outputs' copyright before they are released under an open license and/or stored at a public and trusted FAIR-enabling repository. It provides a guided approach for establishing the proper open-source license required for derivative datasets, media, software etc., or for the reuse of unlicensed content. Target audience is mainly researchers and research organisations.
