Description
In order to make research data (re)usable, they should be assigned a suitable license. Licences define how data may be used by others. As such, they are a key element in ensuring the R – Reusability – in the FAIR data principles. Most repositories and data archives let researchers choose a license when they deposit data. The webinar will give an overview of licensing options for research data with a special focus on the Creative Commons licenses. It will further discuss the topic of licenses in the data management plans of European projects.Agenda
