Structure of the Presentation
I. Some Background & ContextII. Exploring Library’s Role in the “Data Deluge”III. Data Curation Profiles: what we’re learningIV. What a Publisher can learn from the Profile “Data curation is the activity of managing and
promoting the use of data from the point of creation, to ensure its fitness for contemporary purposes and availability for discovery and reuse.”

Analyzed data might need to be reviewed prior to publication, or in case of questions after publication. It is increasingly linked as “supplementary data” by publishers
Quite often data must be scrubbed/anonymized, or processed to format prior to analysis; some disciplines share this data widely within their communities (e.g., astronomy, physics, etc.)
Some raw data are shared readily (e.g., genetics), but also quite often are discarded, depending on discipline

PUL response to “data deluge”
• Investigating research data needs and building relationships with faculty, in order to:
• Design, build, assess prototype infrastructure, tools and services to handle digital data.
• This approach recognizes the disciplinary-specific nature of faculty needs, though there is a tension between this and the practical requirements of building a sustainable suite of services/digital infrastructure.

1. Investigating Research Data Needs
• Strategy 1: Embedding data scientists in research projects; D2C2 provides this expert consultancy.
• Strategy 2: Creating tools to structure conversations about data; Data Curation Profiles help liaison librarians structure their conversations.

Profiling Data
• Research Data Lifecycle (what’s the story of the data from producer's perspective)
• Data Management / Storage• Disposition of the Data• Data Dissemination and Sharing• Data Preservation and Repositories• Roles for Libraries, Librarians, and
PublishersSample Profile link
Bloomsbury ConferenceUCL, London
6.25.10
Disposition of the Data• Willingness / Motivations to share
– feelings/reservations/willingness towards sharing
• Access control– need to restrict or control access to/from others
• Target data for sharing – stage in the lifecycle the data should be shared
• Value of the data – real or potential value, from their perspective
• Embargo (and reasons why/why not)
Bloomsbury ConferenceUCL, London

What data curators can learn
• Advancing university-based cyberinfrastructure is dependent on our understanding of how to support data practices and needs
• Sharing is at the heart of success: collecting, storing, and making use of data can only come after the means for sharing are in place
• We cannot collect and curate all data, particularly in a way that facilitates effective re-use – We will need to work with researchers to develop
selection and appraisal guidelines, and data services

What publishers can learn• Researchers want to disseminate outputs, but ranges
in scope, format, use• They are generally willing to share data with others,
but not without certain restrictions, or benefits for themselves
• They hold on to their data but do not do much to curate it; what is most easily or willingly shared is not always the data that has the most re-use value
Bloomsbury ConferenceUCL, London
6.25.10
Purdue UP lesson learned 1“Researchers want to disseminate outputs, but ranges
in scope, format, use”• Print books and subscription-based journals, PUP’s
traditional focus, are not enough• PUP / Libraries need to offer a range of different
channels to fit different needs• PUP / Libraries need a venue to experiment with
hybrid or new models

Purdue UP lesson learned 2“Researchers willing to share data with others, but not
without certain restrictions/benefits”• PUP provides a layer of editorial services for
credentialing that can incentivize data sharing• PUP needs to make it easy to link to and cite data in
publications (Datacite so important!)• PUP / Libraries need to be nuanced in their Open
Access messages (OA is not always right strategy)

Purdue UP lesson learned 3“What is most easily/willingly shared is not always data
that has the most re-use value”• Move away from producing data supplements for
publications to producing supplementary publications to drive re-use of data
• Take advantage of being “inside the tent” to have deeper conversations with scholars about what is most important data for reuse
Bloomsbury ConferenceUCL, London
6.25.10
Next Steps• Spreading the use of DCPs so that we can get a more
complete picture of faculty behavior variations around data
• More clearly defining library-based publishing services, and building relevant skills and tools in Libraries and Press
• Communicating to faculty the full range of library services they have access to, and changing their old views of what Purdue Libraries and Purdue UP “do”
