With the increasing amounts of data generated in life science, methods for data storage and sharing are being developed and implemented. Online data repositories are more and more commonly used for data sharing. The national Swedish platform Science of Life Laboratory has decided to use an institutional data repository as a mean to address the increasing amounts of data generated at the platform. In this project, the system used for the institutional repository at SciLifeLab was studied and compared to implementations of the same system at other institutions to create user documentation for the repository. This documentation was created with the FAIR principles as a guidance. Feedback on the guidelines were then sought from users and based on the received feedback, the user documentation was improved. Using a FAIR evaluation tool called FAIR evaluation services, items published on the repository were evaluated. Investigation of these results and their correlation to the items record on the repository were carried out. Out of ten evaluated datasets all except one scored exactly the same on the FAIR evaluation services tests. This could indicate that the test used is not evaluating aspects needed to encounter the differences in these published items. Based on this, conclusions as to in what extent user documentation can increase the FAIRness of data cannot be drawn.
