Open Research Information at TIB

The Lab Open Research Information (LORI) pursues the goal of making information about research activities interoperable, findable, reusable and accessible in open infrastructures.

  • We foster a commons of open research information
  • We are committed to ethical and responsible handling of research information.
  • We are guided by the FAIR principles.
  • We promote open source software for handling research information.
  • We support knowledge organisations in presenting their scientific output.
  • We work with and on open standards for describing research information, such as CERIF or the Core Data Set for Research.
  • We connect experts from research and administration.

We consider ourselves as a competence centre for the open source software VIVO. Learn more about our commitment, our service portfolio and our developments and materials.
