"There are significant variations across the European #repository landscape with differing levels of support and funding…Some repositories have access to the resources they need…while others find it a challenge to maintain up-to-date software platforms and suitable staffing levels. For Europe to maintain its position as a global leader in #OpenScience, we must ensure there is a strong and sustainable network of open repositories."
