The openMINDS_publications repository is part of the open Metadata Initiative for Neuroscience Data Structures (openMINDS). It extends openMINDS, by providing metadata schemas for representing publications in neuroscience, including interactive publications such as Live Papers. It includes schemas for articles, books, preprints, blog posts, live papers, etc., linked to other openMINDS entities such as Datasets. The schemas closely follow those in Schema.org but extend them for improved interoperability with openMINDS.

The openMINDS metadata framework development started in the Human Brain Project (HBP), funded from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Framework Programme for Research and Innovation under the Specific Grant Agreements SGA-1 (No.720270), SGA-2 (No.785907), and SGA-3 (No. 945539).
The framework is further developed as part of the EBRAINS 2.0 project, funded from the European Union's Research and Innovation Program Horizon Europe under Grant Agreement GA (No.101147319).
The framework also receives support from the BigBrain Project, funded by HIBALL.
The openMINDS metadata framework is closely collaborating with the InterLex Project of the SciCrunch Data and Resource Infrastructure and the KnowledgeSpace hosted by the International Neuroinformatics Coordinating Facility (INCF).
