Openness

Openness in science is the principle and practice of ensuring free access to scientific knowledge, data, methods and research processes in order to promote transparency, collaboration and reproducibility of research. It includes open access to publications, the sharing of research data according to FAIR principles, the availability of research tools and infrastructure services, and the involvement of the wider scientific and public community. Openness in science seeks to maximise the dissemination and usability of knowledge, fosters trust in science and accelerates innovation.
The basic principles of the Digitalia MUNI ARTS infrastructure are from the outset in line with the faculty and university approach to publishing the results of scientific research, which is based on maximum openness of outputs and is expressed in terms such as open science, open access and open data. Specific strategies and positions are defined in the document MU Open Science Strategy 2022–2028. 

FAIR

The FAIR principles build on the principle of openness by specifying appropriate ways to store, preserve, publish, and communicate scientific data. Specifically, this includes findability, accessibility, interoperability, and reusability based on defined parameters. More information about FAIR data can be found on the faculty and university websites.
