OpenAIRE is a consortium working to foster open science by making research outputs openly accessible and linked. It operates a platform that collects, links, and provides access to literature, data, projects, organizations, and other research information. OpenAIRE provides various services, tools, and guidelines to help data providers share their information and enable discovery of interconnected research outcomes. Its goal is to facilitate transparency, reuse, and increased impact of scientific research.
