9. PRIME: Project focus
• Developing a system to exchange metadata between:
• the UCL Discovery EPrints institutional repository
• the Archaeology Data Service subject repository
• the Journal of Open Archaeology Data (JOAD)
• Focusing on archaeology data only to pilot the system
• Building on other successful JISC projects:
• DryadUK
• REWARD
• SWORD-ARM

Often the research has to be fitted to funder priorities
But eventually it gets carried out
Science sometimes has unintended results, which may be of interest to a much wider communityThe resulting data therefore needs to be widely distributed
A UCL Researcher submits an article to a journal, and is asked to archive the data as a precondition of publication. The journal sends the metadata to the subject repository so that the author does not have to re-enter it. The subject repository sends the metadata and DOI of the data to the institutional repository so that it has a record of the output, and the DOI back to the journal to link the article with the data.
