Abstract
Open Science is a set of practices of science according to which research activities and the research products they generate should be openly available, under terms that enable their findability, accessibility, re-use and re-distribution. The main effects of the implementation of Open Science principles is to enable responsible, reproducible and transparently assessable research.
For an effective implementation of Open Science principles, a behavioral change in interested stakeholders and new tools for publishing in the scholarly communication ecosystem are required. Open Science publishing calls for the publishing of all types of research artefacts, beyond scientific literature. Today, the scholarly communication ecosystem lacks of tools and research community practices on Open Science publishing. To fill this gap and support a smooth transition towards Open Science, the OpenAIRE initiative is offering two novel services for research communities and content providers (e.g., institutional repositories, data repositories). The final goal is to support the cultural and technological shift towards the Open Science paradigm, from which all the different stakeholders in the research domain and of the society at large can benefit.
