Why does this matter? • Research quality – How close can we get to the truth? • Research speed – How quickly can we get to the truth? • Research finance – How much does the truth cost? • Improving one or more of these is of interest to all actors: • Researchers as data creators • Researchers as data reusers • Research institutions • Funders – hence government and society 2014-10-07 Kevin Ashley –Confoa-2014 - CC-BY 14

- 18. RCUK policy - The 1-minute version • Research data are a public good – make openly available in timely & responsible way • Have policies & plans. Data with long-term value should be preserved & usable • Metadata for discovery & reuse. Link publications & data • Sometimes law, ethics get in the way. We understand. • Limited embargos OK. Recognition is important – always cite data sources • OK to use public money to do this. Do it efficiently. 2014-10-07 Kevin Ashley –Confoa-2014 - CC-BY 18

Notas del editor
- There are many such stories of unexpected data reuse; these are a few examples. The last, exemplified in the Old Weather project, is seeing the original data being reused for at least the third time and in doing so is helping both climatologist and family historians through a single piece of transcription work. An impressive result.

- Many of you may be familiar with this graph from the Hubble Space telescope data archive. It tells the same story in a different way, and also tells a story about the transformation of astronomy as a discipline. In the days of photographic plates, sharing (analogue) astronomical data was difficult. Digital instruments transformed this, and some time around 2000, more research was being done with old data than with new data. I could be more specific about this if the data behind this graph was made available, incidentally!
- For an audience such as this, I shouldn’t have to explain why data reuse is important. But just in case, and to explain why some things have happened the way they have, I’ll describe some of the drivers. Ensuring that all research data is discoverable and reusable increases the quality of the research that we do. It can add to the data we collect ourselves and can improve the statistical rigour of our results. Exposing data to scrutiny makes it more straightforward to validate or challenge the findings of others. Making data available also improves the speed with which we can do research. If someone else has already gathered the data we need (perhaps for a different end use), we can move directly to the analysis stage of our work, saving both time and money. And saving money increases the efficiency of research. We hope that the money saved lets us do more research, but even if it doesn’t society as a whole will gain. There’s evidence behind this that I’ll come to later, but it is an effective counter to those in some universities who feel that increasing funder requirements for data management simply leads to additional costs with no gain. There is a gain in all these areas, and hence every one of the actors – researchers, their employers, their funders, and society, should be motivated to make this happen.
