Open Data A growing trend among scholars, government agencies and international organisations to share data outputs, codebooks and software.

Issues How can we define research data and what types of research data should be open? When and how does openness need to be limited? How should the issue of data re-use be addressed? Where should research data be stored and made accessible? How can we enhance data awareness and a culture of sharing?

A Data Survey November 2013 The EUI Library invites you to participate in a survey, telling us about your experience with research data and issues related to its use. We are interested in what kinds of data are being used at the EUI, and what kinds of data are being generated – both by individual researchers and teams.
