Explore new open research management tools: Open Science Framework (OSF) and Protocols.io

Open Science Framework (OSF) and Protocols.io are open research management tools designed to enhance the rigour and reproducibility of research projects, foster collaboration, and support open research practices (such as pre-registration and open sharing of protocols) across the broader research community.  

The University of Manchester Library now offers institutional memberships for these tools, granting staff and students access to premium features and dedicated technical support.
