Connecting Scholar and Citizen:
The Emerging Social and Cultural Role of the Repository
The academic repository has been developed as a tool for sharing digital resources as a part of scholarly communication. But people and governments are now questioning why knowledge sharing should stop at the edge of the campus?
Digitization is allowing academia to adopt a more interactive role within broader culture and society. PHAIDRAcon’25 focuses on the emerging new role for the repository as a central, enabling platform for academia to develop new interactions with society.
From The Third Mission agenda and Citizen Science, to the growing significance of digital cultural heritage, this year’s conference will explore the newly emerging role of the repository in forming new digitally-driven bonds between society and scholarship.
As part of this, we believe re-use - aligned with FAIR principles - should be developed further and extended to new communities.
Apart from these topics, part of the Conference Day will be dedicated to contributions from PHAIDRA partners. We invite you to share your experiences, use cases, and thoughts on the topic. Contact us via events.phaidra@univie.ac.at .
