Notizen und Kurzbeiträge.

The ZBW - Leibniz Information Centre for Economics is taking over the project management for the establishment of a digital repository called "Repository for Policy Documents" (REPOD). The goal is to create an information and consulting infrastructure for politics and society by the end of 2023, which enables targeted research of consulting documents. The REPOD will be used by various political and social actors and ensure consistent quality assurance. The ZBW is building a digital information infrastructure and developing a unified metadata schema for easy discoverability and reusability of policy papers. The ZBW has prepared a unique data collection and moved it to the ZBW Journal Data Archive to make it accessible for research in accordance with FAIR Open Data principles. The data is now FAIR-compliant, meaning it has a DOI, extensive metadata, and is linked to the corresponding publication. The Journal of Applied Econometrics, its publisher Wiley, and the ZBW have started a cooperation to integrate data archives of economic scientific journals. The Badische State Library has opened a new learning workshop that offers a flexibly furnished learning landscape with interactive technology and events on various topics. [Extracted from the article]
