## Description
[//]: # "=======================
Researchers in Asia region struggle to find relevant information on advancing open scholarship during their research time. We aim to help reduce the barriers by curating resources at one platform which will enable adoption of open scholarship practices through a slow culture change. We look forward to curate this information and call it as R^3 Reference Resource for Researchers.   
============================"

## What are we working on during the do-a-thon? What kinds of support do we need?
[//]: # "=======================
Brainstorming
collecting existing open databases on funding, APC waivers, institutional repositories etc. 
Funding : https://asntech.github.io/post/database-of-fundings-for-postdocs/ 
============================"

##  How can others contribute?
[//]: # "=======================
Please say what the best way to contribute to the project or challenge is, sometimes that will just be 'lets discuss here' or 'Ive started a Google doc'.
If you are a challenge lead, give some context on what design thinking tools you will be using, and how other folks can update their ideas onto the thread.
If you are a project lead, and you already have clear ways people can contribute it might be worth linking to them here.
Language: If your project is regionally based in a non-English-speaking region, clarify here what language you and contributors will primarily be communicating in.
If you're leading a project or challenge participating remotely: Use this space to let people know that this is a remote project and that you are not 'in the room' in Berlin. Let other participants know what the best way to get in touch with you, where the work will happen, and where any updates or outputs will go.
If you are at the in-person meeting in Berlin: Be as inclusive as possible to those outside the room.  Use this space to give clear instructions to those participating in the do-a-thon remotely on how they can keep up to date and contribute. ============================"

[//]: # "=======================
You're ready to post!!! After posting your issue, the real work begins. Next, you might want to:
   Tweet a link to this issue with #opencon so others can join in
   Make another issue to involve people in your work - remember to use your metadata
   Come back from time to time and update the community on your project.
You'll get an email update whenever someone interacts with your issue.
