We present how a workshop for the local Italian ELIXIR community s teered an improvement of the quality and adoption of Bioschemas, a series of semantic annotation templates for tools, data and samples developed by the ELIXIR Interoperability platform. Gathering a small number of different end-users and having them focus on applying Bioschemas specification to their tools and data resulted in recruitment of early adopters, eight annotated resources, Bioschemas examples for future users and more than ten suggestions for specification improvement. This approach could be applied to other open specifications, promoting a wider adoption and the integration of suggestions in a bottom-up fashion.

Abstract
We present how a workshop for the local Italian ELIXIR community s teered an improvement of the quality and adoption of Bioschemas, a series of semantic annotation templates for tools, data and samples developed by the ELIXIR Interoperability platform. Gathering a small number of different end-users and having them focus on applying Bioschemas specification to their tools and data resulted in recruitment of early adopters, eight annotated resources, Bioschemas examples for future users and more than ten suggestions for specification improvement. This approach could be applied to other open specifications, promoting a wider adoption and the integration of suggestions in a bottom-up fashion.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
