What’s going on? ?
Citations
Research outputs
Publications
Institutional repositories – for publications
Research Information Management Systems – for citations
Institutions want systems and processes to support the research assessment exercise
You’ve heard about the link we’re developing at Leeds but since outputs for the REF may well include outputs other than the publications which we hold in WRRO there is an unanswered question as to how these other outputs can/will be cited - and underlying that is of course, where are all these outputs being stored.
So REF/ and OOCS are 1 driver – the other is RC policies – which are increasingly looking for data to be archived and/or shared

(Link to DCC) – patchy coverage – some Research Councils have data services/centres, and changing policies/guidelines – requiring data deposit and/or supporting data sharing
Key:
full coverage
partial coverage
no coverage

What’s going on?
Research outputs
patchy coverage –
Data repositories proliferate – as projects/institutions create hard drives/databases/repositories for research data (where there is no national/discipline specific data service/archive)
So – that’s the situation – next Julie is going to talk a bit about what York is doing and then I’ll come back and tell you a bit about what Leeds has been doing

YODL-ING – technical help
Work to create a ‘one-stop’ deposit point for YODL, WRRO
and maybe LUDOS, other repositories
Idea is to use technology to help with deposit
Also, working with RIIS to ensure nobody has to submit information twice

Bulk upload and deposit forms
Cross collection searching
Secure and stable storage
In addition to text, LUDOS has the capability to store multimedia research outputs such as images, audio, video and manage complex relationships between objects. Helps to managed born digital objects in addition to digital surrogates of analogue content.
It also has the ability to import large collections easily with minimal administrative load in addition to creating of deposit forms for collections that continue to grow.
Cross collections searching in addition to individual collections.
Secure and stable storage allowing researchers and collection owners to focus on description as opposed to building storage infrastructure

10. L&T Research → teaching Other Research MIDESS example applications
Timescapes – big research project – funding to build a data base to store their outputs and share across the programme – for secondary analysis

11. L&T Research → teaching Other Research MIDESS example applications
Archive for reuse – and disaggregated preservation at UKDA – ticks ESRC boxes and means that 1 institutional infrastructure is used to support the project long-term

The future?
VRE
So we’ve got all this going on – and now local data repositories too - but where are we heading?
Poor old researcher – what am I supposed to do with my data (what are policies mandates and where to put it),
Or User - how can I find data associated with a specific project
Really need one point in which then links to publications and other outputs -
And 1 service/support mechanism – which will then point users/others in right direction
