Data is hot! • Article on “trends for 2012”: “Keeping your research data secret until they are finally printed in a scientific journal is so 2011” • NeelieKroes (Vice-President of the European Commission responsible for the Digital Agenda): “Data is the new gold”
Open Access and Open Data Policies • NWO: NWO funded data collection has to be publicly available • for humanities (GW) and social science (MaGW) departments of NWO data contracts have to be signed with DANS • long-term preservation and access will be accepted as a budget line in project proposals • KNAW: All Academy research data is stored sustainably and made publicly accessible unless there are serious reasons for not doing so (those reasons are set out in an Academy institute’s data memorandum). • European Commission: Data Management Plan to become part of proposals for Horizon 2020
NWO and DANS want to ensure that new research data are archived in a sustainable manner and made available for further research. After having been granted the subsidy, researchers are obliged to enter into a data contract with DANS. The data contract is intended to guarantee accessibility to the data as well as their digital sustainability for additional scientific research. It is based on the General Grant Conditions of NWO, available in the recently updated Regeling Subsidieverlening NWO.
Data Management Plans • Preparation of the data collection project • Implementation of the data collection project • Archiving data and making data available http://www.dans.knaw.nl/content/categorieen/diensten/data-management-plan
Data Management Plan in more detail 1. Preparation of the data collection project 1.1 General information about the data collection 1.2 Overview of previously collected data 1.3 Choice of software and hardware to be used 1.4 Determination of intellectual property and legal requirements 1.5 User information 1.6 Interoperability 2. Implementation of the data collection project 2.1 Data Management 2.2 Choice of metadata to be used 3. Archiving data and making data available 3.1 Depositing data in a data archive or repository
Report of Commission Schuyt • Access to research data improves transparency • Make integrity rules a vital element of scientific conduct • Many differences between disciplines • Small-scale research more risky than big science • Peer pressure • Data management in SEP
What is DANS? • Institute of Dutch Academy and Research Funding Organisation (KNAW & NWO) since 2005 • First predecessor dates back to 1964 (Steinmetz Foundation), Historical Data Archive 1989 • Mission: promote and provide permanent access to digital research information (started with digital archives in the humanities and social sciences)
Our main activities and services • Encourage researchers to self-archive and reuse data by means of our Electronic Archiving SYstem EASY • Our largest digital collections are in archaeology, social sciences and history (moving into other domains) • Provide access, through Narcis.nl, to thousands of scientific datasets, e-publications and other research information in the Netherlands • Data projects in collaboration with research communities and partner organisations • Advice, training and support (Data Seal of Approval, Persistent Identifier Infrastructure) • R&D into archiving of and access to digital information
Why is digital preservation of data important? • Checks on mistakes (and fraud!) by data creators and replication research • Data re-use in comparative studies
Cultures of data sharing differ over disciplines, but also change over time

Access control & licenses • Open (after registration) • Restricted (depositor is the access authority) • Other (DANS as security backup) Therefore: • Data at DANS is not “up for grabs”! • Access management is facilitated by archive system, easy and fast • Embargo for limited time period is possible
5 Criteria16 Guidelines Data Seal of Approval The research data: • can be found on the Internet • are accessible (clear rights and licenses) • are in a usable format • are reliable • can be referred to (persistent identifier) Partnership with ISO and DIN standards of Trustworthy Archives www.datasealofapproval.org

Why connect data to publications? • Data as background/additional information • Publication as background to data • Different views on the data • Check author’s assertions • User can find all information in one place
