InvenioRDM Workshop

The Invenio framework, developed by CERN, has existed in various forms supporting scientific resources and research outputs for over twenty years. The current form, InvenioRDM, is a next-generation, modular, turnkey repository and RDM platform supporting FAIR practices, research transparency, and discoverability. Both the back-end of Zenodo.org and a free, community-supported opensource software, InvenioRDM meets user needs by employing the robust DataCite metadata standard, powerful search features, ORCiD- and ROR-enhanced creator and contributor fields, and much more. Partners in this strong international development effort include developers, librarians, administrators, and other professionals in Europe, Africa, Asia, and North America. This InvenioRDM workshop will introduce repository managers, developers, system/software administrators, decision makers, and librarians both to the open source repository framework and the inspirational and inclusive international community that supports it. This full-day workshop will feature presentations from project partners on implementations, innovations, and customizations. It will also include practical and motivational community-focused sessions filled with real-world expertise and tips about both how to sustain an InvenioRDM instance and how to make collaborative contributions towards the community's goals. Throughout the workshop, participants will gain in-depth insights into the software and how participants at any technical or institutional level can become contributing members of this dynamic community.
