Open Repositories and Interoperability Challenges in UK
- 1. Open Repositories and Interoperability Challenges in UK Peter Burnhill Director, EDINA National Data Centre, University of Edinburgh, Scotland UK DL.org Workshop, The British Academy, London UK, 4 February 2011 Digital Libraries and Open Access: Interoperability Strategies
- 2. + expertise, in areas such as geo-enabling, access management, etc
- 3. UK funding councils JISC Sub-Committees JISC Collections acting as platform for network-level services & helping to build the JISC Integrated Information Environment research, learning & teaching in UK universities & colleges Research Councils UK National Data Centres
- 5. Researchers’ viewpoint: a cultural shift? Preserve or Perish “ You are not finished until you have done the research, published the results, and published the data, receiving formal credit for everything.” Mark A. Parsons (2006) International Polar Year “ A scholar’s positive contribution is measured by the sum of the original data that he contributes. Hypotheses come and go but data remain.” in Advice to a Young Investigator (1897) Santiago Ramón y Cajal (Nobel Prize winner, 1906)
- 16. [HCI] User Interface for Unmediated Re-direction/Routing + option for Unmediated Deposit

- 32. Research publications as research data DataShare2 from formal institutional arrangement to formal publishing into (linked) data infrastructure
Editor's Notes
- EDINA may be less familiar, at least to all of you. It is a national academic data centre, established in 1995 following the success of the University of Edinburgh putting forward its Data Library in an open competition to set up three datacentres capable of hosting and providing access to bibliographic datasets and numeric research data. The other two were BIDS, which subsequently moved into the private sector as Ingenta, and MIDAS, the data centre at the University of Manchester - its now renamed as Mimas. The mission of EDINA, which incidentally is the older poetic name for Edinburgh, is to enhance productivity of research, learning and teaching in the UK. It used to host a range of key A&T databaes like BIOSIS ~Previews, Compendex, Inspec, Art Abstracts etc, but now the services on journal …. As you can see, EDINA is a funded by JISC … <click>
- As many of you will know, JISC is the Joint Systems Committee of the UK funding bodies for higher and further education. It has a number of sub-committees which help inform policy and also watch over programmes of funding and the operation of services, such as those provided by the two National Data Centres. It has also set up a company, JISC Collections as a legal body to broker licences.

- UK & EU EU and ASEAN comparison?
- Type A: if its part of the published work then should we look to the preservation agencies, the national deposit libraries and CLOCKSS, LOCKSS and Portico, for access over the longer term? And do publishers see these as costly files to maintain in the short to medium term? Or do publishers want to hand the responsibility to subject and institutional data repositories? Type B: and with knowledge of UKDA, ADS but also the (growing but problematic ??) call for data to be held in institutional repositories, some recommendations on what is the 'right thing' to do, and how that can be done with ease - a Repository Junction task! For Type C, I intend to propose what editors should require by way of citation and URL link. I am on the hunt for such editorial practice.
