Re: [CODE4LIB] Data Preservation Grant for Disease Ecology

[Collin Schwantes]

Hey Joe,

Thanks for the reply - I will check out those resources. Not rude at all to
think they would have had a DMP of some kind - they did and the system that
was implemented works well for the majority of the data and the primary use
case but could use more documentation. Requirements shifted several times
towards the end of the project in ways that created technical debt and left
some systems under-documented.

Cheers,

Collin

That’s actually pretty common.   The PI team builds a system that’s basically 
designed to ONLY answer the question late that they care about / work with the 
data how they’re used to do it, with absolutely no consideration at all for how 
else the data might be used.  (Technically ‘re-used’, which is use in ways 
other than the study was originally collected for).

On the documentation front, even if you can’t get direct funding for it, 
someone might be able to get a publication credit by documenting it and 
submitting it to one of the various ‘data journals’ out there.  I find that 
some of the most green scientists on the PI team actually do the best at 
documentation as they don’t assume that everyone already has the tacit 
knowledge from the field.

Depending on how the discipline handles the use of data, making your data 
easier to be used by a wider community can also help to increase co-authorship 
or citation counts.  (As some disciplines will list the data’s original PI as a 
co-author, while others will cite a ‘data paper’ or the ‘first results’ paper)

I’ve given a few talks about it, back when I was helping evangelize for the 
Joint Declaration of Data Citation Principles.  I can probably dig up some more 
resources if you want to try to convince them that this is worth doing on their 
own time, even without explicit grant funding.

I’ve also heard of institutions making funding available to their researchers 
to improve their data, but I have no idea how common that is… and I haven’t 
been as active in wider community stuff for about 5 years now.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Data Preservation Grant for Disease Ecology

[Karl Benedict]

I would echo Joe’s suggestion to focus on


  1.  Find a long-term repository outside of the project for continuous 
discovery, access, and reuse of the data that does not require periodic care 
and feeding from the original team. If there is not a specific disciplinary 
repository for these data then one of the repositories mentioned by Joe would 
be a good general repository.

Then, once the data are safely in a repository,


  1.  potentially work on updates to the platform that was developed by the 
project to provide value-added services on top of the data. As these 
capabilities typically require the type of investment you are asking about in 
your original message you want to make sure that this work is separate from the 
long-term preservation, discovery, and access provided by an appropriate 
repository.

This split strategy allows you to decouple the foundation of discovery and 
access from applications that are based on the data, ensuring that there is a 
baseline of availability that is assured, even if the value-added services end 
up being discontinued.

Karl

Apologies...yes, the MCs read the Announcements scripts at one of the two 
Announcements periods on each day's schedule: 9-9:15 a.m. and 1:15-1;30 p.m.

LPC is working on the scripts now...
