RDM-practical course: Research data publishing with Zenodo – global visibility and FAIR

This workshop covers the basics of publishing research data using real-world examples. We will guide you through the practical process of publishing your research data in a test environment on Zenodo, an interdisciplinary research data repository. Zenodo is operated by the large-scale research organisation CERN and hosted in Switzerland. Researchers can publish their data there free of charge, easily, independently and in a sustainable manner.

In this course, we will cover the following points relevant to submitting data:

• Metadata fields (minimum requirements, standardisation, classification)
• What makes the data in Zenodo FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable)?
• Copyright and licensing
• Linking from Zenodo to GitHub, Dryad and to publications (publisher websites, the University Library’s publication server)
• Open access, Restricted access
• Handling data subject to data protection regulations
• Optional, voluntary review of the submitted data

This course is part of the Research Data Management (RDM) series of events at the University of Leipzig. The series comprises introductory courses, which provide an overview of the subject, and practical courses, which focus on specific aspects of RDM.

To take part actively, you will need access to the Zenodo test environment (Sandbox) or a standard account.
