Connecting the DOIs Overview eResearch Australasia 2013 24 Oct 2013
Welcome! Purpose and outcomes of this workshop Format for the workshop Expectations Who are our session leads today? Image: http://andrew-johnson.org
Ice Breaker Why are you here? What do you hope to get out of today? What is, or might be, your role in supporting data citation in your institution? Image: supplychainn.blogspot.com
Data Citation – why we care • Benefits for academia and the nation • global access to research data • legitimately citable contribution to the scientific record • results can be verified and re-purposed for future study • cross disciplinary studies never previously possible
Data Citation – why we care • Benefits for individuals and institutions • acknowledge and reward data outputs • data citation metrics - reuse can be tracked • increases the citation rate of linked publications • data publications acceptable for CVs and biosketches (NSF) • journals require citations for supplemental material

Where are we up to? (Some) recent developments: Funders & Government(s) Publishers Researchers Standards Citation tracking ANDS and Australian institutions image: http://riverbankoftruth.com
Funders come on board the NSF now allows for citable data (ie with a DOI) to be listed as an outcome of research, like a journal article. This is done in what is called a "biosketch" - basically a summary of your work, an a key part of the granting process. <http://datapub.cdlib.org/?p=1343>
And in Australia … “The Code” What will the next revision say about data?

Why do we care? • Australia invests over $30B p/a in R&D • Australia has approximately 100K researchers • Data capture costs up to half of a research project • Enabling data reuse will reduce that cost • Data citation is key to enabling data reuse
