Abstract:
CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, is the
world's largest high-energy physics laboratory. The frontier
research conducted at CERN has long embodied the values that
have more recently come to be defined at the Open Science
movement, which describes research and development that
is collaborative, transparent and reproducible and whose outputs
are publicly available (EU, 2018). Indeed these values were
enshrined in 1953 in CERN’s founding Convention, which states
that “… the results of its experimental and theoretical work
shall be published or otherwise made generally available,”
providing the organization with an early Open Science manifesto.
This presentation will provide an overview of CERN’s activities
to increase the accessibility, reuse and reproducibility of
research in high energy physics, with a particular focus on the
SCOAP3 program, which has transitioned 90% of literature in the
discipline to Open Access, and a range of additional services,
particularly relating to Open Data (CERN Open Data, REANA, CAP
and Zenodo).
