DANS is also involved in the event. Herbert Van de Sompel, Chief Innovation Officer at DANS, is part of the program committee. Ingrid Dillo, deputy director of DANS, will give a presentation about FAIR data as a keynote. In her presentation Ingrid Dillo will talk about research data management and the concepts of FAIR and TRUST. The sharing and re-use of data, information and knowledge around the globe poses many challenges. According to the European Commissioner Moedas data sharing “…requires a common language as vehicle and carrier, and the “language” is named FAIR.”
In addition, Marjan Grootveld, senior policy officer at DANS, will provide a ‘lightening talk’. During this session she presents a evaluation tool for assessing data sets on their FAIRness. This tool has been developed for researchers, data librarians and repository staff.
