OpenAIRE Guidelines

Welcome to the OpenAIRE Guidelines. The intention of this is to provide a public space to share OpenAIREs work on interoperability and to engage with the community. The OpenAIRE Guidelines helps repository managers expose publications, datasets and CRIS metadata via the OAI-PMH protocol in order to integrate with OpenAIRE infrastructure.

Head over to http://guidelines.openaire.eu to read the guidelines.

OpenAIRE Guidelines consists of guidelines for publication repositories, data archives, CRIS systems, software repositories and repositories of other research products respectively:

• OpenAIRE Guidelines for Literature, institutional, and thematic Repositories
• OpenAIRE Guidelines for Data Archives
• OpenAIRE Guidelines for CRIS Managers based on CERIF-XML
• OpenAIRE Guidelines for Software Repositories (draft)
• OpenAIRE Guidelines for Repositories of Other Research Products (draft)
