DE GIUSTI, Marisa Raquel. Quality in digital repositories: The TRUST principles for data repositories. Rev. iberoam. tecnol. educ. educ. tecnol. [online]. 2021, n.29, pp.55-59. ISSN 1851-0086.

This work presents TRUST principles, which provide guidelines for trustworthy data repositories. These principles, namely, Transparency, Responsibility, User Community and Sustainability, and Technology (TRUST), set a shared framework to guide repository managers in implementing the best practices for Digital Preservation. In order to achieve this goal, domain definitions are provided, along with concepts related to quality, current regulations for auditing and certification. Finally, this work also explains -with illustrative examples- how to comply with the aforementioned principles and thus ensure the data stored in the repositories are Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable (FAIR) by any community to move towards an open, participatory and socially responsible science.

Keywords : Repositories; Open science; Data; Reliability.
