UC Research Development Network MeetingUC Irvine, 25-26 February 2012

Ensuring the viability, sharing, and use of the University’s digital assets across time and space

Innovative curation services for preservation of, and access to, research outputs► Preservation enables access over time► Access is dependent upon preservation

up to a point in time

Applicable throughout the scholarlylifecycle

Open source, open data Community-driven

Better data management leads to …► More data sharing► More data reuse► Better ROI► Better scholarship► Better impact factor

UC conducts one-twelfth of allUS university research and development► $4.7 B out of $48.6 B in 2010

Why is research data management important?

See, for example, Piwowar, Carison, and Vision (2011), Proc. ASIS&T 48(1): 1-4 doi.wiley.com/10.1002/meet.2011.14504801337

What are “metadata”?

Are there standards or best practices I should be

aware of?

How much will it cost? Why should I care

about preservation? I just need a place to

put my data.Where can I get help?

How can I share my work with my colleagues?

How can I publish the data associated with

my publications?

How do I fulfill the data management requirements of my

grant?

How can I make sure I get credit ?

Can’t my work be included in the

Web of Science?

How can I provide access to my

work?

What keeps UC researchers up at night?

Engage with the research community early in the lifecycle Prioritize scarce resources in support of emerging initiatives Start small: provide simple tools and services that can evolve

into more complex and comprehensive solutions Deploy flexible infrastructure and services that can be used

in diverse ways Develop partnerships and collaborate now more than ever
