Abstract
The Citizen‑Enhanced Open Science in Southeastern Europe Higher Education Knowledge Hubs, CeOS_SE project, implemented from January 1, 2022, to January 1, 2025, sought to strengthen the capacity of Southeastern European (SEE) countries in Open Science (OS) and Citizen Science (CS). These regions have historically been less involved in major European scientific initiatives, including the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC). Led by LIBER – the Association of European Research Libraries – the project united partners from Denmark, Croatia, Italy, Serbia, Greece, Bulgaria, and Cyprus. The initiative positioned libraries as central knowledge hubs tasked with mediating collaboration between researchers, students, community groups, and institutions. Throughout the project, libraries were recognized as critical actors capable of fostering citizen participation in scientific processes, thereby enhancing transparency, inclusiveness, and collective scientific literacy across the region. A foundational contribution of CeOS_SE is the publication "Policy Recommendations for Sustainability and Connection to EOSC," (Vrčon et al., 2024) which proposes a structured framework for integrating citizen‑ engaged practices into long‑term institutional strategies. The recommendations highlight the strategic role of libraries in ensuring that citizen engagement becomes a sustainable and embedded component of scientific workflows rather than an isolated or experimental practice.
