  1. KDRS Benefit Framework and Value Chain: a use case for archaeology JISC Dissemination event London, 12th July 2011 http://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk

  2. Previous involvement with KRDS • The ADS were involved in the creation of the first Keeping Research Data Safe project • Looked in particular at the issues of cost in the digital preservation of research data • Interesting to try and weight this cost against the ‘benefit’ and ‘value’ of the preservation activity. http://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk

  3. How we can foresee use of the Benefits Framework As a repository we often have to help justify the costs/effort associated with digital preservation. The benefits worksheet (and associated guide) helps explain the benefits in structured and meaningful fashion. http://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk

  4. How we can foresee use of the Benefits Framework 2 • Range of audiences (individual projects, funding agencies, partner organisations) • Different ‘levels’ of complexity, from the project plan to cases for institution support of the repository http://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk

  5. How we can foresee use of the Value Chain • The issue of ‘value’ in archaeology is key • IFA and the Southampton report • Difficult to articulate the meaning of value in different subject areas http://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk

  6. How we can foresee use of the Value Chain 2 • Value chain can help identify the different values for different audiences • The ‘quantification’ of impact can help in a number of ways • In research bid terms, it helps justify resources • In archive preparation terms it helps with selection and retention decisions http://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk

  7. ADS thoughts • A light touch in helping persuade projects or funders of the benefits of preservation in a structured and clear way… • Or a deeper insight into project planning decisions when dealing with finite resources. http://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk
