Outline of Final Research Achievements	Recently academic research has been based on digital environments. This research project was designed to find out how the “openness” and “sharing” in academic research have progressed. The ratio of open access of research articles in the entire fields has reached more half. The new style of articles in electronic journals which are feasible for digital reading gradually became popular. Although in the advanced initiative case the research data sharing have improved, researchers in many fields have complex feeling or attitude for data sharing. Because researchers cannot separate data sharing from research practices, it make more difficult to achieve data sharing widely. The issues or problem of data sharing should be examined from all angles.
