5. Training to enact change
Once infrastructure is in place, we need to show researchers how to use it to improve their practices.

6. Partner with others on training --- librarians are great partners in this ---- to teach researchers skills in how to deal with basic data management and how to improve their research workflows for personal and sharing purposes.
Software Carpentry and Data Carpentry are other great examples of efforts in this area, and partnerships with those in libraries --- we’ve done some work with them(SHARE Associates) and are exploring ways to do more.
Free training on how to make research more reproducible

8. Community
we recognize that stewardship of high-value data should not exist solely with one organization or institution and its systems. We are highly interested in encouraging and creating a distribution of trust.

9. Incentives to embrace change
Supporting these behavioral changes requires improving the full scientific ecosystem.
At a conference like IWSG 2016, there are many people in the room contributing important parts to this ecosystem. I hope you leave this talk seeing the potential for how we might be able to work together on connecting tools to provide for better transparency and reproducibility in the workflow.

17. There’s more to it than sharing of discrete objects
There’s more to it than sharing of discrete objects. Think about using this as an opportunity to increase transparency by capturing the entire workflow, and to do so while connecting tools and services that make up the parts of the workflow, not requiring people to change all of their practices at once, and providing immediate efficiencies and value to the researcher AS they comply with requirements.

Presentation - Rick Johnson, Don Brower, Sayeed Choudry, Elliot Metsger
Audience: All
Archiving Research Data into Hydra through the Open Science Framework (OSF) - A look at initial work of Notre Dame and Johns Hopkins to archive research projects from the OSF into Fedora and Hydra repositories, and first implementation of a Fedora Research Object Model. This plugs into a service offering of the Center for for Open Science, OSF for Institutions (OSF4I). ND/JHU version will be initial support for OSF Fedora Archiving Add-on in the OSF as part of OSF4I offering. We hope to start discussion around next steps for other Hydra institutions to use this along with OSF4I to allow them support to archive research data from the OSF into their own Hydra/Fedora repository.

22. A vision for distributing the stewardship of High Value Scientific data
Blockchain DBs for use cases like smart badges
Connect to distributed filesystems to encourage better stewardship of scientific data
Prototyped  use cases with Tahoe-LAFS and CephFS
The OSF’s modular technical stack and the abstraction layers in place to integrate external services, we are well positioned to adopt decentralized systems.
For example, the blockchain could be easily connected to the OSF for use cases like smart
Badges   AND storage add-ons could be developed to connect to distributed filesystems for stewardship of scientific data.  

23. An inclusive approach to sharing & archiving
BitTorrent or like protocol could allow the OSF, scientists and colleagues to transfer and host torrent files (or packages of torrents).
A modified BitTorrent Tracker & client could enable users to donate storage to the system
Content Addressable storage could be developed on top of such a system
We have prototyped an inclusive approach to archiving where any person, organization, or institution could contribute to scientific data stewardship by storing and hosting some percentage of OSF data via BitTorrent.

24. We want to hear about implementation and collaboration opportunities
