SUMMARY:The 2nd SPARC Japan Seminar 2016 (Open Access Summit 2016) \"P
 romoting Openness of Research Data: Incentive and Data Management\"
DESCRIPTION:The Japanese government has found an importance of \"Open 
 Science\" and is now going to promote its associated activities in Jap
 an. In the end of March 2015, a report entitled \"Promoting Open Scien
 ce in Japan\" was published by the expert panel on Open Science, based
  on Global Perspectives, Cabinet Office. According to the report, rese
 arch data should be made openly available, although they are subject t
 o constraints that ensure ethical, legal, and commercial protections.Â
    To accelerate the activities related to open science, universities,
  public research institutes, and data providers are expected to play a
 n important and active role. In actual, however, they are not so activ
 ely working because no intrinsic motivation is induced and no effectiv
 e system for research data management (RDM) is developed.  In addition
  to the incentive that open research data can provide new insights and
  values, therefore, another incentive is needed for researchers and re
 search community that they can gain professional recognition and rewar
 ds for their labors to make research data open. Regarding RDM, librari
 es and institutional repositories fundamentally function in data prese
 rvation, management, and publishing. If they cooperate with researcher
 s in the RDM workflow, that possibly solves the aforementioned problem
 s and accelerates the open science movement in Japan.  In recognition 
 of this situation, this seminar reports an actual corporation between 
 libraries and research groups as well as a cutting-edge institutional 
 repository. These reports will lead attendees to consider how the open
 ness of scientific research data in Japan can be promoted through coop
 eration between librarians and researchers.\n\nFor more information vi
