System interoperability (beyond CRIS/IR): the key concept

'Interoperability' has two different and simultaneous implications:

1. Effective data exchange ('imported' as good as 'created')2. External record querying and visualization as if local

Actual cross-institutional system implementations rather relying on a 'service layer' that will interoperate with whatever systems are available at institutional level(not quite following this ideal-world model)

Four main CRIS/IR interoperability areas at UGla factsheet

https://www.jisc-collections.ac.uk/Jisc-Monitor/APC-data-collection/

1. Metadata exchange for bibliographic records

2. Data exchange on research context (mainly projects & funding)

3. Finance information exchange for GoldOA payment management

4. Metadata exchange for Research Data Management purposes

Gold OA leads to improvement on policy compliance monitoring

Moving towards IR-as-CRIS scenario (but also CRIS-as-IR)

Extending the repository datamodel (EPrints)

Whatever the institutional systems and their specific configuration, exchange between systems and

communities is a key requirement for building the needed services on top of the whole array of use cases

Some key interoperability trends (I): global standards

Some key interoperability trends (III): RDM the next key challenge(at much an earlier stage than previous use cases)

Interoperability the leitmotiv for next euroCRIS SMM
