On 22 October 2024, the fourth edition of the Open Science Festival will take place at the School of Business and Economics (SBE) faculty of Maastricht University. This festival is for the entire open science community and beyond. Professional research support staff and researchers across all disciplines are invited. The day will be full of interactive sessions, an information market, and plenty of opportunities to mingle and meet.
Using Open Research Information (ORI) for reporting and analyses requires harmonized data following a clear data model for requests and responses to a scholarly knowledge graph (SKG) using an Application Programmable Interface (API). The OpenAlex API is currently preferred by developers and data scientists, where the OpenAIRE API is lacking behind. OpenAIRE is a community driven organisation, and with your help in the month July 2024, this is about to change. To learn how, pleas read further.

The OpenAIRE Graph stands as one of the largest and most comprehensive collections of research metadata worldwide, embodying OpenAIRE’s commitment to promoting Open Science and offering valuable resources to the research community. While our data has been accessible through API endpoints for many years, we recognised the potential to make these APIs even more powerful and user-friendly. Thus, we have developed a new and improved Graph API to address various issues and enhance the user experience.
OpenAIRE Connect introduced a new feature, where you can 'advertise' to your researchers to deposit in your repository, when they visit the NL Research Portal.
