1 Citing Datasets

2 Research: search for knowledge or any systematic investigation to establish facts. And to establish facts, one needs Data.

3 Nearly 18,000 journals 600 trade publications 350 book series 3,6 million conference papers 38 million records from 1996 19 million pre-1996 records Results from 435 million scientific web pages 23 million patent records from 5 patent offices Finding Research From one place, you can search across many disciplines and sources: articles, theses, books, abstracts and court opinions, from academic publishers, professional societies, online repositories, universities and other web sites. And to establish facts, one needs Data.

4 Source: crossref.org on 27 th November 2009... to scholarly articles and book chapters... Cross-linking Research And to establish facts, one needs Data.

5 Conclusion: You can stand on the shoulders of giants...... but it seems you do so without data.

7 Source: Acemoglu et al (2001), based on Curtin, 1989, Philip D. Curtin, Death by migration: Europe’s encounter with the tropical world in the nineteenth century, Cambridge University Press, New York (1989).Curtin 1989 and other sources.

Taken from an appendix to an article published in Elsevier’s World Development... and again why...

8 And Librarians, How many are cataloguing datasets in their OPACs?

9 Datasets: Scholarly Publishing’s Lost Sheep?

10 By creating metadata for: Datasets In the same industry standard formats as... Book chapters and Journal articles

11 Authors will be able to cite... Publishers will be able to link... Discovery systems will be able to find... Librarians will be able to catalogue... Datasets alongside published outputs...... to the benefit of Everyone

12 And here's how...... it can be done

13 OECD: is working with others on Publishing Standards for Datasets is working with CrossRef on citation standards for dynamic objects Will be pushing metadata for datasets to Scopus, Google Scholar et al You can learn more in this White Paper Green.

14 Thank you You can learn more in this White Paper Green. T, We Need Publishing Standards for Datasets and Data Tables http://dx.doi.org/10.1787/603233448430 http://dx.doi.org/10.1787/603233448430 Toby Green Head of Publishing, OECD toby.green@oecd.org

15 A proposed example of a dataset using standard bibliographic and citation metadata. Bibliography of Books that cite this database Citation tool compatible with EndNotes et al Dataset title with ISSN, DOI (& MARC) record
