3. System interoperability (beyond CRIS/IR): the key concept
'Interoperability' has two different and simultaneous implications:
1. Effective data exchange ('imported' as good as 'created')
2. External record querying and visualization as if local
Actual cross-institutional system implementations rather relying on a 'service layer'
that will interoperate with whatever systems are available at institutional level
(not quite following this ideal-world model)

6. Four main CRIS/IR interoperability areas at UGla factsheet
1. Metadata exchange for bibliographic records
2. Data exchange on research context (mainly projects & funding)
3. Finance information exchange for GoldOA payment management
4. Metadata exchange for Research Data Management purposes

7. Gold OA leads to improvement on policy compliance monitoring

10. Whatever the institutional systems and their specific
configuration, exchange between systems and
communities is a key requirement for building the
needed services on top of the whole array of use cases
