  2. Any valid user should be able from any location to access reseach information anywhere in Europe and wide whatever the structure and content of the source.

  3. Identity • euroCRIS is a not-for-profit organization, dedicated to the development of Research Information Systems and their interoperability. Mission • euroCRIS is established to be the internationally recognized point of reference for all matters relating to CRIS: Current Research Information Systems. Key Objectives • Achieving universal recognition for the necessity and utility of CRIS • Achieving universal recognition of the desirability of interoperating CRIS, and interoperating CRIS with other relevant systems • Achieving universal utilisation of (the evolving) CERIF standard for CRIS and for CRIS interoperation

  4. Key issues of the euroCRIS strategic plan • 1. Promotion of CERIF • 2. Strategic partners • 3. OA community to move from DC to CERIF • 4. EU funded project to demonstrate capability

  5. Promotion of CERIF Improvement of availability of research information

  6. Improvement of accessibility of research information

  7. Improvement of usability of research information

  8. Improvement of sustainability ofresearch information systems

  9. 2. Strategic partners • Strengthening relationships with strategic partners and increasing partnerships ALLEA, ESF, CODATA, JISC, ESF • Possible new partners • LIBER http://www.libereurope.eu/node/447 • COAR http://coar-repositories.org/ has partnership arrangements

  13. Rome declaration Rome Declaration At the second workshop on CRIS and OAR held in Rome May 2011 there was broad agreement on the need to converge the developments in CRIS and OAR for the benefit of the wider research community. We, representing the communities concerned with CRIS and OAR hereby declare: • We recognise that research information should be integrated seamlessly whether the primary source concerns management information or scholarly publications; • We resolve to develop an architecture and data model suitable for the purposes of the research community; • We resolve jointly to develop further and utilise the CERIF model since it is the EU recommendation to member states; • We resolve to develop appropriate services to act on the data model within the architecture.

  14. Rome Declaration At the second workshop on CRIS and OAR held in Rome May 2011 there was broad agreement on the need to coordinate the developments in CRIS and OAR for the benefit of the wider research community. We, representing the communities concerned with CRIS and OAR hereby declare: • That high quality research information is critically important to research institutions, funders, policymakers and society at large; • that publicly-funded research information should be available, shareable and integrated seamlessly; therefore we commit: • to develop an architecture (including data model and services) suitable to pursue these principles; • jointly to adopt and develop applicable open standards; • to advocate these principles among all stakeholders.
