New guide to Promote Open Science and Citizen Science in Research Libraries

With contributions from experts and lessons learned from existing initiatives, research libraries are supported in integrating Open Science and Citizen Science into their work. "Open Science Meets Citizen Science – A Guide" is the result of extensive collaboration by the LIBER Citizen Science Working Group and aims to strengthen libraries as central actors in the Open Science movement. The guide offers valuable resources and best practices on topics such as data management, open hardware, and ethics.

The working group's goal is to promote collaboration between research libraries and citizen scientists and to facilitate access to scientific data.
