·     OpenDOAR: A database of open repositories that is a useful tool for locating an appropriate repository for self-archiving.

·     Open Policy Finder: A database stating the policies of academic publishers relating to self-archiving of publications (green open access). The database is a reference tool. Before self-archiving a work in a repository and making it publicly available, it is always necessary to verify the terms of the publisher’s licensing agreements, which are usually found on the publisher’s website.  

·     Zenodo:  A repository created with the support of the European Commission that offers a central location for storing and searching for research data. It also serves as a so-called “orphan repository” for publications for which no suitable institutional or subject-based repository is available. Every record in the repository is given a permanent DOI identifier.

·     Directory of Open Access Books (DOAB): a directory of peer-reviewed scholarly e-books published in open access mode. The interface contains a register of information about the e-books with links to the full text of the publications on the publisher's website or another repository.

·     Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ): a useful tool for finding a suitable open access journal (gold open access). The interface provides information about the journal (publication fees, licenses, etc.). A large number individual journal articles can also be searched.

·     Open Research Europe (ORE): a publication platform of the European Commission that allows Horizon 2020/Horizon Europe program grantees in all research areas to publish their research results in open access mode free of charge. Accepted publications are first published in a preprint version and then go through an open peer review process. More information can be found in the ORE Article Guidelines.

·     Amnesia: A tool for anonymizing data, which removes primary identifiers (e.g., names) from your data and also transforms secondary identifiers (like dates of birth, addresses, etc.) so that no individuals in the dataset can be identified. For more information about this tool, see the video of this webinar.

·     DMPonline: A web-based tool that is accessible free of charge, which assists in the creation of data management plans (DMPs), sharing them with co-authors, and eventually exporting and sharing them with the public. The tool contains templates for DMPs that conform to the requirements of funding agencies like Horizon 2020 and a repository of public DMPs.

·     FAIR Data Self-Assessment Tool: Using this tool and answering a few simple questions helps you to evaluate the extent to which your data meets the FAIR criteria. You can also use this checklist to evaluate the FAIRness of your data.

·     Re3data.org (Registry of Research Data Repositories): A register of repositories for research data offering an overview of existing international data repositories, which contains useful information that will help you choose an appropriate repository for your data.

·     Zenodo: A multidisciplinary repository for orphan and other data operated by the European Commission for storing publication activities and data, reports, and other outputs related to research projects. Every record is given a permanent DOI identifier.

·     Creative Commons: This tool chooses the Creative Commons license that is appropriate for your work after asking you to answer some simple questions. More information on the different Creative Commons licenses and their applicability can be found on the Creative Commons website.

·     GDPR at Charles University: An internal Charles University web portal with information about protection of personal data (documents, FAQs, contacts, etc.).

·     Choose a License: This tool helps you choose the open-source license appropriate for your software.

• OpenAIRE: A project of the European Commission that provides infrastructure support for open access to the results of scientific projects financed with European Union funds. It works like an aggregator of open repositories. The project produces a number of educational videos and webinars, which you can find on the OpenAIRE Youtube channel.
• Open Access Button: An application that makes it possible to search for legal, openly available versions of published articles (searchable by DOI, PubmedId, title).
• Unpaywall: A plugin for Google Chrome or Firefox that searches for legally accessible versions of requested articles.
• Think. Check. Submit: A campaign that offers a guide for determining the trustworthiness of journals and publishers in which authors are considering publishing their work. This informational video describes how the guide works.
