  1. UTC Best Practices for RIP and TRID CUTC June 2013 Lisa Loyo Manager, Information Services lloyo@nas.edu

  2. Overview • • What is RIP • • UTCs use of RIP • • What is TRID • • When to use TRID? • • A few last items

  3. What is Research in Progress (RIP)? • RIP is a clearing house for DOTs, UTCs and others to enter and maintain their research projects. • RIP exists to inform researchers of current projects so as not to duplicate research • A second goal is to connect researchers • Entering contact information

  4. UTCs use of RIP • UTCs enter, update and remove their projects in RIP. Nothing is done to a project record in TRID • UTCs receive only one login for their institution • Head UTC for a consortium enters and maintains consortium project records; head UTCs receive two logins • Generic e-mail addresses are preferred for login credentials • A goal of RIP is to identify research, leaving a completed record in RIP until the final report is in TRID ensures that there is not a gap in availability

  5. What is the TRID Database • TRID is a database that contains records of completed, published research, monographs and journals (not projects) • Materials in TRID are indexed by professional indexers who work for TRIS or are from ITRD or ATRI databases • The project records in TRID (noted with PROJECT) are copies of the RIP Database records and are not part of the TRID Database

  6. When to use TRID? • UTCs submit electronic files or links to final, published research reports to TRID; no projects should be submitted to TRID • To submit a final research report, email the file or link to tris-trb@nas.edu

  7. And Last… • DOT records are available in RIP immediately; UTC records are reviewed by a professional indexer before they are available in RIP • DOT/UTC records for the same project are combined into one record; a DOT will own the record but it is identified as belonging to both the DOT and the UTC • Acceptance of research reports for TRID • Training session for RIP will be held in early to mid - August
