The Swedish Research Council's recommendations for research data: FAIR and open access
The Swedish Research Council's recommendations describe the initiatives needed to achieve a full transition to open access to FAIR research data.
The report gathers together the Swedish Research Council's recommendations on:
- open access to research data
- marking and licences when making research data openly accessible
- criteria for FAIR data management
- data management plans
The recommendations are primarily aimed at the managements of research performing bodies and research funding bodies. They can also be used by other actors to increase the understanding and knowledge of what the transition to open access to research data entails, and how it is achieved.
