Our Report on the European Music Economy, and its supporting document, Economy of music in Europe: Novel data collection methods and indicators will follow the Open Policy Analysis Guidelines and the best practices of the European Union’s Knowledge For Policy and the European Open Science Cloud portal. The aim of this document is to share an open report that includes clear accounts of all methodological procedures, data, and assumptions. Best practice: All project components are organized in a selfcontained folder using a Standard File Structure (SFS), and a readme file is included (in this case, here). We place all files with SFS on the European open science repository Zenodo on zenodo.org/communities/music_observatory/.
