The Good Practices in Open Scholarship Working Group is developing a product specification and timeline for an open scholarship support service. The goal is to ensure “open” is easier for any researcher at any point of need, from tenured faculty to early career researcher. It is envisioned that the support service will grow with other sectors’ support (federal agencies, philanthropies, and societies and associations). The service aims to centralize existing campus support services for institutions that have them (libraries, grants and compliance office), support those that do not, and expand the network of support at the disciplinary level (i.e., link scholars to a network of disciplinary peers).

The Cross-Sector Alignment Working Group is working on a set of “offers” – what HELIOS Open members, and the higher education community more generally, can bring to the cross-sector conversation to catalyze open scholarship, and “asks” – what is needed from other groups (funders, societies, government agencies, etc.) to optimize and scale these efforts.

Implementing Data Evaluation at Institutions
Contextualizing paragraph
This guide provides practical guidance for integrating data and other open outputs in institutional review processes: ‘Data Evaluation in Academia: Implementation Guide’. DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.17293504
This guide assists research institutions assess their current practices and capacity for evaluating research data contributions. Whether institutions are at initial stages of their conversations about data evaluation, or more advanced in recognizing data contributions, the model helps institutions reflect on the dimensions relevant to data evaluation, assess their current approach in each of those areas, and identify opportunities for developing their practices and capacity for data evaluation.

Institutional & Departmental Policy Language
In January 2023, members of this working group contributed to an issue brief, disseminated to campus leadership, urging decision-makers to (1) stimulate further campus discussions on open scholarship; (2) begin surfacing core concerns and considerations about aligning with emerging federal directives; and (3) leverage the collective power of HELIOS Open to align higher ed and cross-sector strategies.
