## Description

CERN’s Open Science Office supports researchers in making scientific work more accessible, reusable, and reproducible. Serving the CERN research community, the office provides practical guidance, tools, and opportunities to connect with others working in open science. Its support covers publishing articles, theses, books, and reports openly; managing, sharing, publishing, and reusing research data; and making analysis workflows reproducible. It also advises on open-source software and hardware, research assessment, and ways to share science through education, outreach, and citizen science.

The office connects researchers with services and projects including the CERN Repository, Open Data Portal, CERN Analysis Preservation, INSPIRE, SCOAP3, Zenodo, HEPData, and the Open Hardware Repository. It also promotes community engagement through the Open Science Practitioners Forum, events, stories, and a community ambassador programme. Researchers can contact the office for assistance, attend office hours at the CERN library desk, or use dedicated email addresses for questions about open-access publications and research data management. The office is part of CERN’s Scientific Information Service within the OSI Department.
