JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY
Policy on Access and Retention of Research Data and Materials
http://jhuresearch.jhu.edu/Data_Management_Policy.pdf
6. DESTRUCTION OR REMOVAL: Research Data must be maintained for the
periods required by law, University policy and sponsored agreement terms (See
Appendix V). Thereafter, Research Data must not be destroyed without prior
approval of the appropriate University official. With respect to removal of the
Research Data, the University recognizes the importance of Research Data to the
future research and career of its faculty. Therefore, should removal of Research Data
be approved, for example, because of the transfer of the investigator to another
institution, the following requirements apply:
I. Researchers may receive approval to remove original Research Data. The
University may retain copies.
II. Research Data generated during the Researcher’s employment at the
University will be maintained in accordance with Johns Hopkins policy
III. Research Data that are integral to the ongoing research of another Johns
Hopkins employee or student will continue to be made available for that
purpose
IV. The researcher bears full responsibility for making original Research Data
available to Johns Hopkins or federal and legal entities upon request.
Others involved in the project may remove copies (but not originals) of the Research
Data with permission of the Primary Responsible Investigator.
7. MAINTENANCE AND REVISION OF THE RESEARCH DATA: The Primary
Responsible Investigator of the research project is the person directly responsible for
maintenance of Research Data created on that project. In order to support the
project’s credibility and the University’s rights and ability to meet obligations related
to the Research Data, should any revisions to final Research Data be contemplated,
the Primary Responsible Investigator must notify the appropriate offices in the
University and the originator of the information. The Primary Responsible
Investigator must retain the original Research Data. See also Appendix IV.
