management planning at this point.
Planning
Timelines for DMP are dependent on Canadian funding agencies introducing data management plans as part of the
grant application requirements.
We are doing some work in each area now but plan to expand our services going forward. For data management we
want to populate the DMP Tool with institution specific information for DMP training we want to do more subject
specific workshops with graduate students for archiving we have 3-4 pilot projects coming soon.
We have a proposal in to support hardware/software/staffing for a data archive and consultation services.
We plan in the next year to increase effort around training sessions, operational RDM, archiving through our IR, and
cost models/budgeting for RDM.
We would like to do that, but it will depend on staffing and expertise as well as resources to move it forward.
We’ve just started thinking about it, we don’t know about any of this yet.
57. If you indicated above that your library plans to offer research data archiving, please indicate the
repository model. Check all that apply. N=47
We plan to assist researchers with locating external data repositories 34 72%
We plan to directly assist researchers with depositing data at a repository (whether library-
operated or external)
33 70%
Our institutional repository will be used to archive research data (and used for publications) 23 49%
The library will host or be directly involved with archiving research data at an external archive or
repository service, such as DuraSpace or DataVerse
14 30%
The library will operate a research data archive dedicated to data deposits and access 13 28%
We will be involved with data archiving that is primarily operated by another department/group at
our institution
12 26%
Other repository model 9 19%
Please briefly describe the other repository model. N=9
Chronopolis
Dark replicated archives, library-hosted
Possibly look toward other repository models as we mature our data archiving services.
The libraries are investigating other supports, which could include external hosting options to be added with the existing
excellent, robust internal supports through the university.
The library-run Fedora repository being developed will include research data but also many other kinds of data and
objects.
This process is still under discussion.
