NESSTAR - the data archive perspective by Margaret Ward UK Data Archive

The past Decisions... Decisions... Decisions Planning and preparation The present Future developments Benefits for everyone!

Past considerations: Which datasets should be included? What information should be included? Which DDI elements should be used? What tools are currently available? What additional resources would be required?

Decisions... Decisions... Decisions... Datasets for NESSTAR identified All variables in these datasets to be fully labelled Question text, interviewers instructions and ‘universe’ information to be added Variables to be grouped to ease navigation All existing documentation to be available

Planning & preparation: Get acquainted with NESSTAR conversion tools Assess the quality of the chosen datasets Assess the documentation - locate questionnaires & match to data files Establish procedures for adding the additional information required

The present: Converting existing on-line catalogue records to DDI DTD Enhancing existing data files Adding additional information into study description section of DDI Adding question text, and other information from questionnaires, at variable level Grouping variables

Future developments (1) Datasets assessed for NESSTAR suitability at acquisition stage All data routinely prepared for NESSTAR Question text, & other metadata, supplied in ‘NESSTAR friendly’ format

Future developments (2) NESSTAR suppliers to produce a ‘Guide to good practice’ which should include: Step-by-step instructions on the use of the conversion tools Details of any ‘controlled vocabularies’ for certain DDI elements Worked examples illustrating the use of the DDI elements in relation to NESSTAR

Benefits to data users & data creators Ability to browse data and metadata from own desktop Ability to subset and download data and metadata Easier access to data resources Data available to a wider audience Greater use of data=more publicity & recognition for data provider

Benefits to the Data Archive Providing information at a more detailed level than before Less time taken to supply data Seen to be taking advantage of new Web technology Greater use of data=more publicity & recognition for data archive=further funding=continuation of the archive
