Abstract

Objective: This article aims to analyze the openness of data in Brazilian federal university libraries, as required by open government initiatives and current Brazilian legislation, using the indicators of the ISO 11620:2014 standard as a reference.

Method: The methodology includes quantitative and qualitative analysis of library data available on official portals and application of questionnaires at the 69 federal universities linked to the MEC.

Result: The results indicate that the majority of libraries do not have their data included in the University's Open Data Plans, violating the guidelines of the Comptroller General of the Union. Although libraries collect data and produce reports, their participation in open data initiatives still is limited.

Conclusions: There is potential for greater engagement in promoting transparency and access to information about the data produced and held by these spaces.
