Scientific Information Policy Board (SIPB)
The Scientific Information Policy Board (SIPB) is an inter-departmental body reporting to the Director for Research and Computing. It deals with any matters related to policies, strategies, and technology services related to the management of scientific information for the high-energy physics community.
The SIPB was established in 1990, and the mandate was updated in December 2022.
