The OpenAIRE Validator service allows to test your repository’s compatibility with the OpenAIRE Guidelines.
If validation succeeds the data source can be registered for regular aggregation and indexing in OpenAIRE. OpenAIRE allows for registration of institutional and thematic repositories registered in OpenDOAR, research data repositories registered in re3data, individual e-Journals, CRIS, aggregators and publishers.
The Validator service includes two main steps to perform the aggregation and indexing of your datasource in OpenAIRE:
1st: Validate your datasource
Test the compatibility of your repository/journal or aggregator to the OpenAIRE guidelines.
2nd: Register your datasource
Register your literature repository, data repository, journal or aggregator in OpenAIRE.
