Open research infrastructures are playing an increasingly critical role at all stages of the research life cycle, from grant application through dissemination and evaluation. However, funding for these infrastructures is, at best, patchy. Most infrastructure organizations rely on community support, such as membership, and/or, in some cases, grants. Ensuring that these organizations are fully sustainable will take long-term, reliable investment. In this session we'll look at some of the ways this sort of investment is - or could be - happening, and who is - or should be - involved.
The NISO Plus conference brings people together from across the global information community to share updates and participate in conversations about our shared challenges and opportunities. The focus is on identifying concrete next steps to improve information flow and interoperability, and help solve existing and potential future problems. Please join us to help address the key issues facing our community of librarians, publishers, researchers, and more — today and tomorrow!
