• The Finnish Research Information Hub service portal (Tutkimustietovaranto)  research.fi  is open now ! Information Hub links researchers and organizations with all research outputs: publications, research data, research infrastructures, funding decisions and other activities

• Crossref makes research outputs easy to find, cite, link, assess and reuse.
• DataCite's mission is to be the world's leading provider of persistent identifiers for research. Through the portfolio of services, Datacite provides the means to create, find, cite, connect, and use research.

• How do DataCite and Crossfef support research data sharing? Presentation by Britta Dreyer June 27, 2018
• OpenAire
• Scholix,  Scholarly Link Exchange: An initiative is to establish a high level interoperability framework for exchanging information about the links between scholarly literature and data.  Scholix aims to enable an open information ecosystem to understand systematically what data underpins literature and what literature references data.

Make data FAIR

• Deposit (meta)data in a trustworthy repository
• Provide appropriate metadata
• Obtain a permanent identifier
• Enable open access: "As open as possible, as closed as necessary"
• Licence the data

Cite to datasets. Remember in-text-citations and references in bibliography! Read more e.g.

• Piwowar, H.A., Day, R.S., Fridsma, D.B. Sharing detailed research data is associated with increased citation rate (2007) PLoS ONE, 2 (3), art. no. e308
• Theory and practice of data citation by Gianmaria Silvello (2017) in JASIST
