In a study in Nature, 67% of researchers say lack of access to others’ data is a major impedance to scientific progress. 36% say they’d share their data. (31% therefore admitting they’re impeding scientific progress!)<\/p>\n
Lots of funders require data and outputs to be available – but repositories not helping them do it.
\nAustralia much further forward than UK, US, Europe (who now have mandates but no infrastructure)
\nANDS – great website, guides for students, etc
\nVictoria University Research Data Management libguide<\/p>\n
Being about to cite data is vital – elevates it to equality with papers
\nCurrently people happily cite papers, but only 25% cite data only in reference list (as opposed to in the data availability section etc). Hitting people with a white paper doesn’t make them listen. So how can we report on impact? What use will ThomsonReuters’ data citation package be if they miss 75% of actual impact?<\/p>\n
Taylor and Francis now providing datasets (in fact paying figshare to convert it back to the format it originally was submitted it to them in…)<\/p>\n
People don’t care about research integrity, funders’ data policies, legislative change. Not even moral and ethical oblications. Somewhat about raising profile of yourself and research. What really engages them are:
\n * increased citation rate
\n * simplicity
\n * visualisation is cool<\/p>\n
Institutions:
\n * How much data are we generating?
\n * Where the hell is it?
\n * What’s happened to the old stuff?
\n * How can we get our research re-used more than any others?
\n * I want to out-perform other institutions in league tables.
\nReceiving all this money and no idea where it’s going.<\/p>\n
