Diana Pustuła, University of Warsaw SESSION 2 The library, vector of change towards Open Science From the point of view of a research administration officer ABSTRACT The university grant offices, notwithstanding their different specific names, being involved in research project management contribute indirectly to the institutional implementation of Open Science strategy. In particular to the Open Access (OA) policy to publications and research data. Scientific institutions struggle between assuring the best possible protection (including IPR) of the research results for the sake of their effective commercialisation on the one hand, and their wide but secure dissemination, on the other. Doing so they need to consider not only internal or national but also EU policies and specific initiatives on Open Science and/or OA (influencing both aforementioned ones) to comply with (e.g. Open Research Data pilot). Not to mention contractual obligations resulting from the specific R&D grant agreements. The latter ones are gaining on importance in the context of participation of the scientific institutions in the biggest EU Framework Programmes for Research and Innovation and, therefore, winning attention of the university management and the central administration offices. The research managers are more and more often expected to advise the scientists not only on the institutional infrastructure and different solutions on OA to publications but also to guide them through the requirements of but not limited to opening research data underlying publications. One of them assume also development of a Data Management Plan specifying which data in the specific project will be open. Bearing those new and growing OA tasks in mind, requiring pooling institutional experts and infrastructure, a close cooperation between the research grant offices and the university libraries it is crucial and very much needed taking into consideration the vital role of libraries “in the preservation, curation, publication and dissemination of digital scientific materials, in the form of publications, data and other research-related content” and “in the creation of the Open Science movement.”(OECD 2015) *OECD (2015-10-15), “Making Open Science a Reality”, OECD Science, Technology and Industry Policy Papers, No. 25,OECD Publishing, Paris. http://dx.doi.org/10.1787/5jrs2f963zs1-en.
