HF1 – Goal 3: JLU strengthens its digital research infrastructure by strategically establishing and expanding corresponding systems and competencies.
In order to address the diverse developments of digital transformation in research, JLU is expanding its infrastructure. It is establishing standards for handling digital research data and supporting researchers with information and consulting services when dealing with open access. In doing so, it is expanding its cooperation with Hessian and national research data infrastructures (HeFDI and NFDI) and creating access to current subject-specific offerings for all researchers.
JLU's current research information system (CRIS) addresses the need for digital research management and provides an overview of all existing research projects within the university. The system reduces administrative effort in answering political and civil inquiries and creates more space for research.
In addition to handling research data, JLU also makes it easier for its scientists to work with research equipment and facilities. At the Research Campus of Central Hessen (Forschungscampus Mittelhessen; FCMH), JLU is working together with Philipps University Marburg and the University of Applied Sciences to develop a software-based overview of large-scale research equipment at the three institutions. Moreover, JLU is developing central, digitally supported management of its core facilities in order to optimize their use and workload, and it is supplementing the joint digital equipment map of the Research Campus with its own 'small equipment'.
Subgoals and Indicators
Subgoal HF1 – 3.1.
JLU establishes a structured procedure for handling research data in all departments.
Indicator HF1 – 3.1.1.
JLU continuously offers training, information, and consulting services in the area of research data management and, starting in 2023, will continue to develop these in exchange with Hessian-wide, national, and international consortia in line with demand (
HeFDI
,
NFDI
).
Indicator HF1 – 3.1.2.
JLU will offer diversified solutions for long-term archiving of digital assets and research data from 2025 onwards.
Indicator HF1 – 3.1.3.
JLU will have written and officially published local, discipline-specific research data guidelines by 2028.
Subgoal HF1 – 3.2.
JLU supports the transformation to open access publishing in the various academic cultures so that research results are freely available not only to scientists and students but also to society at large.
Indicator HF1 – 3.2.1.
An advisory and information service on open access publishing will be an integral part of the services offered to researchers in 2025.
Indicator HF1 – 3.2.2.
Electronic resource stewardship is optimized for utility-based portfolio management in 2025.
Indicator HF1 – 3.2.3.
Based on a prototype for monitoring publications generated at JLU and the funds spent on them, the university will have established a comprehensive procedure by 2028 that will enable the analysis and forecasting of the volume of publications and the resulting funding requirements.
Subgoal HF1 – 3.3.
JLU uses a research information system accessible for all researchers to centralize information on research and
publications
and to enable it to be linked to administrative data.
Indicator HF1 – 3.3.1.
JLU will have fully implemented a
research information system
by 2025 and will use it to systematically monitor research.
Indicator HF1 – 3.3.2.
By 2030, JLU will make it possible to verify research data in its research information system and will network this with its
research data repository
.
Subgoal HF1 – 3.4.
JLU has an overall concept for systematically using core facilities, which enables centralized management by means of software and simplifies access to the those facilities.
Indicator HF1 – 3.4.1.
By 2025, JLU will have established a digital equipment map in conjunction with
FCMH
, which they will use to map the spectrum of existing (large-scale) research equipment. Starting in 2026, JLU will track and optimize the utilization of its research equipment with the help of this equipment map.
Indicator HF1 – 3.4.2.
JLU will have established two new, interdepartmental core facilities to support cutting-edge research by 2025 that are based on a corresponding overall concept (including investment and utilization planning).
