2. Summary New modes of scholarship –eScience service portfolio –Emerging eResearch ecology Infrastructural elements Data creation and capture Data curation and preservation Data citation, discovery and use Adding value and knowledge extraction

3. Vision 2010 Richer scholarly communication based on open access to and re-use of scholarly materials Integrated life-cycle of knowledge from research to learning Access and re-use of scholarly materials Added value services on scholarly materials (involving HE and commercial sectors)

4. More repositories and more content! Working papers, primary data, audiovisual, images Hardware in research labs will automatically deposit experimental data Desktop tools will deposit content Rich data flow between networks of repositories Rich data flows between repositories and other components in information landscape National and institutional preservation strategies in place!

12. Defining workflows and dataflows Analyse roles and interactions within and beween repositories What does the user want? Identify and define services –Potential for shared services, re-use of services Explore potential dataflows –Aggregation, data exchange, metadata extraction and enhancement

13. Dataflows and Workflows How is primary research data captured in faculty and academic departments? Where and how is primary research data stored? Made accessible? What are processes for deriving further data and how is this is structured and stored? Made accessible? How is data curated for the long term?

18. Digital repositories, OA & preservation Long-term access: trust, responsibility, policy Trusted DR Audit Checklist for Certification Draft Research Libraries Group-NARA Taskforce 2005 Defined criteria under 4 categories –Organisation –Functions, processes & procedures –Designated community & usability –Technologies & technical infrastructure UK Digital Curation Centre: advice, tools & services RepInfo Registry EU CASPAR Integrated Project Task Force on the Permanent Access to the Records of Science http://www.dcc.ac.uk/ http://www.casparpreserves.info/pages/1/index.htm http://tfpa.kb.nl/

19. Data, metadata and discovery Validation, publication & discovery of data models & schema Metadata packaging standards –METS, MPEG 21 DIDL –Complex object model? Semantic descriptions –Formal high-level and domain ontologies –Inter-disciplinary discovery ePrints DC Application Profile UK Intute IR search service (eprints) Informal social network approaches folksonomies What data models and metadata schema are in place? Have librarians been involved in their development?

20. Persistent identifiers for data citation How will they be used? We need use cases: depositor, author, service provider, researcher, publisher? Schemes: DOI, Handle, ARK, PURL Publication & citation of scientific primary data project National Library for Science & Technology (TIB), University of Hanover, Germany. STD-DOI Project DOI registry for datasets http://www.std-doi.de What persistent identifiers have been assigned to your data? Is there a data citation policy? Was the Library involved?

21. Adding value: repository services Tools: for deposit, normalisation, manipulation, transformation….. Linking, annotation, visualisation Aggregators: generic, (sub-) disciplinary Knowledge extraction: Mining (data, text, structures) Modelling (economic, climate, mathematical, biological…) Analysis (statistical, lexical, gene….) Is your data OA? How is your data being used and re-used?

Identify and define services –Potential for shared services, re-use of services –In context of JISC e-Framework Explore potential dataflows –Aggregation, data exchange, metadata extraction and enhancement

43. Deposit a priority! To enable users to populate repositories simply, effectively and preferably automatically To capture content from desktop applications, experimental equipment (smart labs), learning content development tools etc To enable repository of deposit to exchange data with further repositories in predictable manner To hide complexity from end-user To be compatible with follow-on added value services layered on repository content Deposit API Working group meeting July 11/12, Warwick http://www.ukoln.ac.uk/repositories/digirep/
