Promotion of CERIF • Companies that are already CERIF compatible • uniCRIS • Atira • Avedas • Moving towards CERIF • E-prints • Symplectic • Improving CERIF • CERIF 2008 includes improved result output, eg. Publication and imporved seminatics on linking semantics • Funding Athen, 10th May 2009

  4. 2. Increased membership • New individual members 2009 • 7 personal • 8 institutional • Total • Institutional members 69 • 14 affiliate Athen, 10th May 2009

As outcome an invitation to edit a special issue of Data Science Journal, DSJ, based on the presentations • Grey Net (Grey Litterature) conferences; Paper each year, much interest for CERIF as metadata • ERCIM/DIS (Data and Information Spaces) Ercim Working Group, Keith presentation at workshop • JISC lot of work going on in UK to link funding organisations to Universities using CERIF-CRIS • ESF Keith meetings on CERIF, Brigitte also • ALLEA Harrie has been in contact, new secretary • EARMA workshops in the past, not much now • EU invited to seminars Athen, 10th May 2009

Annual Strategic Seminarseptember, Brussels “Recording research” “The background is that both nationally and internationally there is a lot of information From research activities, but it is fragmented, varies in quality/structure and is not easy to get at.” 7th euroCRIS Strategic Seminar, September 14-15, 2008 Hotel Errera, Koningsstraat/Rue Royale14, Brussels Athen, 10th May 2009

(Librarians, researchers themselves, research managers (or all)? • Session 3: How should it be recorded?(Digitally, incrementally, workflow) • Session 4: Once recorded, how is it used, by whom, for what purpose? • Session 6: How is it protected? (security, privacy) • Session 7: How is it curated/preserved for future generations ? Athen, 10th May 2009

Persuade OA community to move from DC metadata to CERIF • CERIF-CRIS and repository is one of our core activityThe major current thrust of euroCRIS activity is the relationship between the CERIF metadata and the Institutional Repositories (IR) in a wider context of an e-infrastructure supporting research. • Penetrate the Open Access community and ensure OA is seen within the wider CRIS context A future e-infrastructure the OA need formal metadata and the CERIF-CRIS is the proper start/way to go forward.
