Perhaps even a bigger undertaking of collecting and combining bibliographic metadata on research publications on European level is ongoing as part the agenda of OpenAIRE, an organization behind a network of open science specialists in Europe and currently hosting one of the largest databases in Europe on research outputs. By utilizing the euroCRIS's Common European Research Information Format (later on CERIF) data model at it's core, OpenAIRE has, with first version dating back to 2015 and recent updates in 2018, gained momentum by the OpenAIRE Guidelines for CRIS Managers to support metadata harvests from various institutional and national publication databases (e.g. VIRTA) and CRIS systems (e.g. METIS,). As it stands, in 2019 several CRIS systems aim to be compliant with the Guidelines and thus harvestable by the OpenAIRE. This compliance is not yet achieved by many, and only a couple of CRIS systems are included in the so-called beta infrastructure of OpenAIRE. From these five systems, VIRTA stands out being the only national CRIS system to provide for OpenAIRE.
