Zenodo is a research data repository. It was created in 2013 by OpenAIRE and CERN to provide researchers with a platform for depositing datasets of up to 50 GB in size. This article introduces the Zenodo platform.

Steps

Introduction to Zenodo

Visit the Zenodo homepage at https://zenodo.org/.

Introduction to the Zenodo Platform. You will notice that Zenodo is divided into four main sections, each of which will be introduced below:

The header section.

The Zenodo Logo. Clicking on this will take you back to the Zenodo homepage, regardless of which page you are currently on.

Zenodo's search tool includes a search field with the default text Search and a small magnifying glass icon next to it. For more details on how to use this feature, refer to the article ‘Exploring Research Results on Zenodo’.

Upload - This is the primary function designed for Zenodo. Zenodo was created in 2013 by OpenAIRE and CERN to provide researchers with a platform for depositing datasets of up to 50 GB in size. As recommended by the 7th Framework Programme, abbreviated as FP7, European researchers are encouraged to deposit their articles or final manuscripts in:

The institutional repository of their affiliated research organization; or

A subject-specific repository; or
Zenodo, an independent repository for articles that may not be stored in institutional repositories or subject-specific repositories. For this reason, Zenodo contains only a portion, not all, of Europe's open-access resources.
To upload data to Zenodo, you must be a member of the platform. To become a member, you need to create an account.

Zenodo in a nutshell

Research - all research outputs from every field of study are welcome! Sciences and Humanities, truly!
Citeable. Discoverable. - uploads are assigned Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) to make them easily and uniquely citable.
Communities - create and curate your own community for symposia, projects, departments, journals, where you can accept or reject uploads. Your very own digital repository!
Funding - identify grants, integrated into reporting lines for research funded by the European Commission through OpenAIRE.
Flexible licensing - because not everything is under Creative Commons.
Safe - your research outputs are securely stored for the future in the same cloud infrastructure as CERN's LHC research data.
