Enter once, reuse often, make the most out of research information with MORIS

NAME OF THE LAYOUT Title slide #3 Eileen Waegemaekers & Ingrid van Gorkum 9 Mei 2025 Enter once, reuse often: make the most out of research information with MORIS NAME OF THE LAYOUT Title only #1 Welcome and introduction I'm Eileen, Program Manager Open Research Information @SURF I'm Ingrid, Community manager Interoperability @DCC-PO NAME OF THE LAYOUT WHAT IS A RIS? Mission and Vision •A central information system to register, manage and analyze information about research activities within an organisation. •It connects who, what, when and how of research, not the contecnt but the structured (meta)information. WHAT IS IT NOT? •A supporting system for researcher workflows •An environment for complex analyses •A system for research data (data generated through research) NAME OF THE LAYOUT Title + Icon instruction What can you use a RIS for? Value chain Example Profiling and visibility Source for the Centres of Expertise (CoEs) web pages Steering information Information about contribution of research to strategic themes for further development of research strategy Reporting and accountability Source for BKO report Administrative effciency Optimal reuse of existing information, use of PIDs NAME OF THE LAYOUT Agenda 7x What do you need MORIS most for? Visibility and profiling Steering information Other, namely.. Reporting and accountibility NAME OF THE LAYOUT Title + Icon instruction Mapping exercise Step 1: Read your user story Step 2: Discuss your user story and make a list of the necessary information. Step 3: Discuss where and when you would register this information for the first time Step 4: Check whether this is how it happens in your own organization Step 5: Identify possibilities for reusing that same information, e.g. for other user stories. Step 6: Visualize this workflow in whatever way you like (be creative) Step 7: PRESENT your workflow NAME OF THE LAYOUT Text #3 Who is MORIS? •Occasion: Shared need within the UASs for a flexible and open RIS that enables the sector to gain greater control over the management and exchange of their research information •Objective: A shared solution for administering and sharing research information •Key properties: •Standards: Utilizes open standards and makes use of existing PID infrastructure (ORCID, DOI, RAiD, ROR) •Open Research Information: More transparancy in the entire research process (grants, projects, organisations, datasets, software, research output) •Reuse of information from existing systems and databases (e.g. HR system, DMP tool, repositories) For practice-oriented research Modular Open Research Information System NAME OF THE LAYOUT Title only #1 Visualization MORIS NAME OF THE LAYOUT Text + Image (s) Current state of play •Feb 2025 – Positive feedback but negative advice on OSNL preproposal for MORIS •March 2025 – 12 UASs agreed on further development of MORIS •May 2025 – MORIS identified as "in kind project” by OSNL (submitted by VH/SURF) •June 2025 – CSC-hbo have collectively agreed on the first two phases (exploration, Proof of Concept) of MORIS development (incl. budget) •June 2025 - Start DSpaceCRIS exploration •Oct 2025 – Start Proof of Concept based on DSpaceCRIS with Avans and HU
