Repository and CRIS Interoperability Workshop

Following the very successful DuraSpace and euroCRIS Interoperability event held within the June 2018 CRIS conference in Umeå, this workshop will bring together case studies for institutional CRIS/repository integration for Open Science implementation purposes. The workshop is aimed at system-agnostic repository managers and developers interested in the enhancement in functionality that the integration with CRIS systems rich in contextual metadata can bring to them. The recently published report 'Practices and Patterns in Research Information Management: Findings from a Global Survey' shows an ever increasing integration of repository and CRIS solutions worldwide that the event will explore via a set of presentations and panel discussions. Attendees to the workshop will get an insight into the state-of-the-art system integration among different platforms and will be able to discuss opportunities and challenges related to these integrations. These will address areas like drivers for CRIS/repository integration, realisation of technical interoperability across systems and the roles of the various institutional units in the implementation and management of the integrated system.
