|Title=Open Science – Policy and Guidance (Research Council of Norway)
|Is About=This hub outlines the Research Council of Norway’s approach to open science, covering open access to publications, sharing and re‑use of research data, assessment of open science practices in grant applications, and national participation in the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC). It sets the principle of “as open as possible, as closed as necessary,” grounded in FAIR data and responsible openness. Researchers funded by the Council must prepare data management plans; deposit articles open access through compliant routes; and, where appropriate, make datasets available via trusted repositories with persistent identifiers. The site links to practical guidance for data management planning, licensing and rights, and explains exceptions for sensitive or security‑relevant data. It also describes how open science is operationalised in evaluations: applicants are assessed on sharing plans, use of preprints where suitable, and practices that support transparency and reproducibility. Additional pages provide advice on open access routes (gold, diamond and repository‑based), costs and compliance tips, and Norway’s coordination with EOSC to align infrastructure and policy. Collectively, the pages function as a living manual for researchers and administrators navigating policy, compliance and best practice.<div><div><div><div></div><div><div><div><div></div></div></div><div></div><div></div><div><div><div><div><div></div></div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
