Description

This is a FIDELIS Implementation Story, describing the experiences, lessons learned, and advice from participants in the pilot 'Support for the Adoption of Solutions' support offer "Develop your own FAIR EVA (Evaluator, Validator & Advisor) plugin"

The FAIR EVA support offer introduced repository managers and technical staff to the FAIR EVA evaluator, validator and advisor tool and guided them through the development of a custom plugin tailored to their repository. Participants learned to adapt the code to integrate additional metadata schemas. Although the plugin development took considerable technical effort, it deepened participants’ understanding of their metadata practices and provided a solid starting point for the integration of the tool into their repository.
