Principle frameworks for the usage data trust

[Christina Drummond]

Greetings Everyone,

Thank you for agreeing to participate in this brain trust to inform the policy and principles that guide our pilot effort. I have appreciated your patience as we invited international voices to this online conversation space. We are now ready to start our discussions.

I'd like to start us off by asking you to consider and respond to two questions: 

Question 1) What types or domains of principle frameworks should guide an international data trust focused on OA monograph usage data? 

For example: 

1. open knowledge / open infrastructure 
2. community-based infrastructure design
   
3. privacy / security 
4. scholarly metrics and analytics

What other types of frameworks should we be considering for an OA monograph usage data trust? 

Question 2: What specific frameworks or principles in these domains should guide our work?

Re: open infrastructure principles: 

• France's 44 Exemplarity Criteria for funding from the National Open Science Fund, was approved in 2019 by their Open Science Steering Committee in support of the French Ministry of Education, Research, and Higher Education's National Science Plan.  
• Principles for Open Scholarly Infrastructures documented by Geoffrey Bilder, Jennifer Lin, and OAeBU Co-PI Cameron Neylon in 2015. 

Re: security and privacy frameworks: 

• the EU GDPR personal data definitions, especially Recital 30 with respect to online identifiers 
• the detailed specifications frameworks within the American NIST Special Publication 800-53 Security and Privacy Controls for Federal Information Systems and Organizations
  

Re: infrastructure development

• Human-centered design / design thinking

To facilitate this conversation, I'd like to ask you to consider posting your response to this virtual whiteboard in GroupMap, which will help us to collaboratively organize our thoughts, links, and add details over time.   If email is easier for you, simply reply and I can add your contributions to the GroupMap on your behalf. 

I look forward to your thoughts,

Christina
