Section outline

    • The FAIR publishing toolkit is meant to help either publishers or publishing services undertake a self-assessment of their data collections according to the FAIR principles. The final goal is to increase the data and metadata quality of their content so it becomes more easily and more broadly discoverable.
      As a self-assessment toolkit, it provides a review grid that does not include any evaluation, especially since there is no automated assessment. It instead supports a manual, but guided, adapted, and open assessment of the FAIR principles implementation.

    • The 2025 toolkit, developed by AMU as part of the CRAFT-OA project, enables the reflection on FAIR principles and moving towards possible improvements with the help of a FAIR review grid as well as a guide.
