EquipeX HALiance
HALiance aims to rework HAL’s core services and to match the recommandations and excellence criteria defined by the French higher education and research organisations through the National Plan for Open Science within the scope of international initiatives for Open Science (COAR, EOSC, cOAlition S). It rests upon the renewal of both the hardware and the software.

Programme
- 25 September: Launch webinar to identify the key issues for libraries and presentation of the programme.
- 9-11 October: ADBU Congress, stand 32.
- 12 December: “Open Science Talks” webinar about software preservation: how to raise awareness and mobilise decision-making bodies, and what type of partnerships to develop? The webinar will also provide an opportunity to hear from institutions that have included a “Software” component in their strategy.
HAL and Software Heritage bring together their expertise in the service of open science: HAL ensures the durability and dissemination of research results, while Software Heritages is dedicated to safeguarding and identifying software. These services help to promote more transparent, reproducible and collaborative research.
HAL's new webdesign

| Phase 1 | Phase 2 |
|
The first phase focuses on the researcher’s user experience, comprising the creation of an account, the deposit form, and the overall clickstream from the homepage to the deposit form. |
This phase focuses on administration pages: portal administration, collection management, user management, deletion of ducplicates, check of deposits. For this user sprint, a sample group made up of HAL users with various profiles and administration rights was created and individual interviews were conducted. Monitoring group: N. Alarcon (Casuhal), V. de Lavenne (ADBU), A. Raymond-Denise (EPRIST) |
