A River Runs Through It

On October 15, 2009, the A.River.Runs.Through.It ARL Membership Meeting featured Sayeed Choudhury discussing significant NSF awards, totaling $20 million over five years, aimed at enhancing data curation infrastructure through The Data Conservancy and DataONE. This initiative, part of a $100 million NSF DataNet program, emphasizes creating an integrated data management strategy to support modern research and learning. A feasibility study at Johns Hopkins and partnerships with CLIR and the University of Michigan assess technology and business models for open-access repositories.

  2. DataNet • NSF awards for The Data Conservancy (Johns Hopkins University) and DataONE (University of New Mexico) • $20 million, 5 year multi-institution awards to build data curation infrastructure • Part of $100 million NSF DataNet program • Perhaps first of such programs at federal funding agencies?

  3. Data Conservancy Goal • The overarching goal of the Data Conservancy is to support newforms of research and learning to meet these challenges through the creation, implementation, and sustained management of an integrated and comprehensive data curation strategy.

  4. Feasibility Study • EAGER grant to Sheridan Libraries at Johns Hopkins for feasibility study of an open-access publication repository of NSF funded research • Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR) and University of Michigan are partners • Assess technology, policy, and business model dimensions

  5. (Initial) Possible Approaches • Developing a new system using systems such as Pubman • Building on existing system(s) such as arXiv.org • Adopting and customizing PubMedCentral technology • Federating a network of institutional repositories • Leveraging the HathiTrust

  6. Potential Library Roles? • It depends… • …What forms of research and learning? • Let’s consider how the Earth preserves its rivers… • …Where does your Library’s strategy fit within this “ecosystem”?

  7. Suggested Roles • Preservation of data (refer to the T-Mobile and Microsoft/Danger data loss articles) • Metadata consulting • Data scientist (or Data engineer or Data humanist) • Integration of distributed data sources

  8. Data Model using OAI-ORE

  9. Acknowledgements • Tim DiLauro and David Reynolds (OAI-ORE slide) DataNet award for “The Data Conservancy” and EAGER award for open access repository feasibility study NLG grant award LG0606018206
