From October 23rd to 27th, 2023, the traditional Open Access Week will take place, celebrated with various events at DataCite’s partner universities. All university libraries will provide information and advice on open science at their information desks. In addition, an information leaflet has been prepared to introduce the open science support services offered by DataCite’s partner university libraries.
During the Open Access Week (23-27 Oct), we invite researchers, doctoral students, research administrators, librarians, and other interested parties to a webinar „Data protection in Research“. The event will take place on 25 October from 13:00 to 14:30 in the Zoom environment.
The webinar will feature three presentations, two in Estonian, and one in English. The presentations will cover the following topics:
Introduction to the “Data Protection in Research” guide (Marten Juurik, ETAG/UT), information security and its relevance to research (Toomas Lepik, TalTech) and introduction to the anonymization tool Amnesia (Manolis Terrovitis, OpenAIRE – starting at 14:00 in English).
You can register for the webinar here.
The event is organized by DataCite Estonia, OpenAIRE Estonian NOAD and RDA Estonia.
The annual DataCite Estonia Consortium’s Open Science event “Open Science and Data Management – Mandatory and/or Useful?” took place on the 5th of May at Tallinn University of Technology.
FAIRsFAIR Roadshow is about to visit Estonia on the 18th of November from 10.00-12.30. In collaboration with DataCite Estonia Consortium, the FAIRsFAIR brings you a programme with several FAIR elements. FAIRsFAIR aims to supply practical solutions for the use of the FAIR data principles, such as tools for raising awareness about FAIR or even measuring the level of FAIRness.
In 2015, the University of Tartu, Tallinn University of Technology, the Estonian University of Life Sciences and Tallinn University founded the DataCite Estonian Consortium, which aims to improve the availability of Estonian scientific data and facilitate the international use of scientific data. The consortium ensures spreading and availability of high-quality research resources created by the members of the affiliated research institutions.
