Selection and Appraisal Joy Davidson DCC, University of Glasgow j.davidson@hatii.arts.gla.ac.uk
Why do we need to undertake selection and appraisal?
Potential for redistribution • Non-replicability • Economic case • Full documentation • Relevance to mission • Scientific or historic value • Uniqueness
Exercise As a group, review the I2S2 data lifecycle model and identify a range of possible outputs that you or the researchers you support might produce in a research project. (10 minutes) Based on the ‘full documentation’ criteria, decide which aspects of contextual information and/or software you might need to preserve along with the data for longer-term curation (15 minutes) Feed back to the rest of the group (5 minutes)
Other selection and appraisal activities So, we’ve looked at some of the selection and appraisal Issues that need to be considered when determining what research outputs to keep and what is less valuable However, it is also important to remember that selection and appraisal activities occur at various other points over the data lifecycle and decisions made at each point can affect longer-term curation (software used for processing, visualisation and analysis, formats, consent forms, licences)
