Your anonymous answers will be made available to the research and publishing communities to inform future innovations in peer review. 

The survey takes around 15-20 minutes to complete and will remain open until Friday 7th October.

Do you have a question for the OpenAIRE team? 

The OpenAIRE project is a consortium with over 40 members in all European countries (our NOADs, or National Open Access Desks) , plus a centralized technical and coordination team. This means that there's always someone near you to offer bespoke advice on Open Science issues and questions, to help you find out what the OpenAIRE services and tools can mean for you or your project, how to participate in OpenAIRE, how to comply with funders' Open Access demands, ...

Find out who your local NOAD is and get in touch with them on our dedicated country pages: https://www.openaire.eu/eu-member-states/noads/oa-member-states

We have created a FAQ section, answering the most asked questions about Open Access and OpenAIRE: https://www.openaire.eu/support/faq

If you don't find the answer in our FAQ, you can also ask your question through our dedicated helpdesk system: https://www.openaire.eu/support/helpdesk

OpenAIRE welcomes the announcement of the ambitious ‘Plan S’, launched by cOAlition S, a coalition of 11 national funding organisations. This is an important step towards an open and transparent environment for research, where all kinds of research outputs can be openly accessed, linked, enriched and archived. We expect that this initiative will accelerate the transition to Open Access and Open Science, complementing the existing efforts, with the aim of making all publicly funded research publications Open Access by 2020.

On the Software Heritage archive portal, more than 4 billion files from more than 80 million origins are available since June 7, 2018, date of the official opening ceremony held at the UNESCO, in the presence of sponsors and partners of Software Heritage. 

The Software Heritage archive plays an important role in Open Science: it preserves software source code, ensuring it will be accessible in the long term, and provides intrinsic persistent identifiers for software artefacts that enable not only access, but also verifiable integrity, contributing to making reproducibility and assessment of science more resilient.
