The ZB MED's Publishing TOOLKITS represented as a Human Body

Abstract

The poster aims to give an overview of the toolkits that ZB MED – Information Centre for Life Sciences provides its researchers to enable them to do the best possible research: On the Open Source Platform PUBLISSO – Publishing, the heart of the toolkits, articles, congress abstracts, series and living handbooks from the Life Sciences can be made available in Open Access. With the recently developed search engine, exact terms can be used to find specific articles; searching with keywords is also possible to find new ideas for the new research project. The data management service provides researchers with the necessary skills with regard to data protection, FAIR Data and gives advice which toolkits to use. All publications (text and data) are indexed in databases like PubMed or DOAJ and assigned Persistent Identifiers, and are considered for the long-term preservation of ZB MED. All the services are accompanied by independent advisory services.

In order to provide the best possible service ZB MED cooperates e.g. with the Working Group University Presses, the Drupal Community and is also a partner of the new Open Access Diamond Service Point (SeDOA) in Germany.
