Ações e estratégias voltadas para a ciência aberta em universidades estaduais paulistas: um estudo multicaso

Abstract

This research aims to identify and reflect on the actions of the state universities in São Paulo -University of São Paulo (USP), State University "Júlio de Mesquita Filho" (Unesp) and State University of Campinas (Unicamp) -regarding the dissemination of scientific research and the production of new knowledge through strategies focused on Open Science. As specific objectives, it is intended to point out public policies adopted in the state universities of São Paulo and to identify how these institutions define their guidelines related to new forms of data and information sharing. As data collection procedures, bibliographic research and documentary survey are used. In addition, we sent to the managers of the three selected universities, via the Citizen Information Service (SIC), a request to share information about the Open Science initiatives and strategies developed by these institutions. For the analysis, we categorized and classified the data collected through the five currents of thought that represent perspectives recognized by the authors Fecher and Friesike (2013). The data were treated in an Excel spreadsheet and interpreted with the help of a set of tools in the Power BI business intelligence clouds. It was concluded that the investigated universities have a great focus on research and, therefore, are seriously involved in several movements focused on Open Science.
