LEIbits is a project created by Alessa Gambardella, data steward at the Leiden University Faculty of Science and Kristina Hettne, Digital Scholarship Librarian at Leiden University Libraries, as a part of the inaugural GO FAIR Foundation Fellowship with support from the GO FAIR Foundation, Leiden University, and Knowledge Pixels.
The project aims to use Nanopublications as a means for researchers (from Leiden, other institutions, or the public) to (1) declare the existence of a research project, (2) register where research data are deposited, and (3) make a small statement about the research – and all with only a maximum of three key minimal metadata entries each with optional additions, such as domain and funding source.
By participating in LEIbits, researchers are communicating research knowledge in an easy-to-use, easy-to-replicate, FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) way, while contributing to a distributed network that allows querying across repositories, making data and research more discoverable.
In this Connect & event we will describe the design process, how we engage with researchers and data stewards, and how we envision further developments.

About the Connect & sessions
This event is part of the “Connect and …” series arranged by, and for, the Leiden University Research Data Management Community, on everything data management-related. The sessions take place every month at different days and times, so as to maximize access according to people’s different working hours, and are normally online. Topics and speakers are proposed by members of the Community. You can post a suggestion in the Community's MSTeams space, or write to datamanagement@library.leidenuniv.nl, if you have a topic you would like to discuss in a future meeting and the CDS team will help to make it happen.
