Dear WG members,

We are pleased to announce that the RDA Knowledge Base, developed through the RDA TIGER Project, will officially launch next week on Monday, October 6, 2025.

As part of the launch, a series of informational webinars and workshops will take place on the same day. Further details on the programme and registration links are available on the RDA website: https://www.rd-alliance.org/news/the-rda-knowledge-base-launch/

The RDA Knowledge Base introduces a suite of four specially developed tools and services designed to enhance the RDA member experience:

• RDA Graph – a comprehensive database of RDA-related data

• RDA Discovery – a search and discovery tool powered by the RDA Graph

• RDA Annotator – a tool for annotating web-based resources using RDA Vocabularies

• RDA Publisher – a tool for publishing RDA-related resources using RDA Vocabularies

The webinars will provide a general introduction to the Knowledge Base and are open to all. The workshops, which will explore how the Knowledge Base can be tailored to specific needs, are open exclusively to members of RDA Working Groups.

If you have any questions about the RDA Knowledge Base or the launch events, please do not hesitate to reach out.

On behalf of the RDA TIGER team,

Athina Papadopoulou

Science Officer, RDA TIGER/RDA Europe
