Meeting ID: 823 2690 1268 Passcode: 129310

The FAIR4VREs WG​ is working towards identifying how VREs can and should be FAIR and also enable FAIRness for other digital objects. We have held working sessions at the 18th and 19th RDA Plenaries, where we discussed how the existing applications of the FAIR principles to digital objects translate to VREs, and began to identify the gaps in the existing work.

The co-chairs would like to invite all current working group members and interested newcomers to join us once a month to continue this work. At this first meeting we will be discussing Findability and Accessibility for VREs.
