Our topics:
 
FAIR research data management with Ro-Crates: NovaCrate
Christopher Raquet (SCC)
This presentation will introduce research object crates (RO-Crates), a packaging format for research data and its metadata. Throughout the presentation, we will look at the different parts of an RO-Crate and how they can be of use to FAIR research data management and exchange. NovaCrate will be introduced as a tool for working with and gaining understanding of RO-Crates. We will take a look at the core features of NovaCrate so that researchers can get started with it right away. We are also keen to learn about your ideas for use cases of RO-Crates and how NovaCrate could support you.
 
The state of RDM at KIT: Insights from the survey “OpenScience@KIT”
Michael Anger &  Juliane Mörsel (KIT Library)
In early 2026, KIT Library conducted an empirical survey on the current state of Open Science at KIT, including perceptions and practices around RDM.
This presentation offers an overview of the results: How familiar are KIT employees with the FAIR principles? Are DMPs a commonly used tool? And what conclusions can be drawn from these findings?
