Before you shift everything to them, you should check to see who is considered responsible for the data if it was generated as part of a grant. If it's the university, you'd probably want to keep a dark copy, just in case the state archives loses it. And I admit that it's been a while since I talked to anyone from the National Archive, but when they had the second release of 'data.gov', I was chatting with someone from there, and I remember that the amount of digital data that they were dealing with was orders of magnitude less than what our group did. (and that's not even all of NASA).

If it's the university, you'd probably want to keep a dark copy, just in case the state archives loses it. It is not the state archive but the IT department in the governor's office. We actually have nothing in our repository - it is still in beta. And yes we are looking into : The UU owns the data so will the UU allow researchers to give it away to the state? (faculty senate?) Data generated from research performed on this campus must stay on campus.

(faculty senate?) The way that you worded it, it sounds like you're just giving a copy to the state. What you're proposing to do is ceeding responsibility for its preservation to the state. And I would *not* trust an IT department to do that. State Archives would understand the implications, IT would not. > Data generated from research performed on this campus must stay on > campus. So we give a second copy to the State and do not save $$$ Not necessarily true. You could move the local copy to a lower class of storage (eg. JBOD, to be restored from the state should something go wrong) > Do we need to get legal involved and draw up an agreement with the > state? I would. At the very least you need a Memorandum of Understanding, spelling out what each group is responsible for. You may also want something like a Service Level Agreement, but those are usually for IT services where money's changing hands. (the service provider specifies what sort of uptime guarantee & minimum level of service (bandwidth, etc.) will be available, or you don't have to pay for some period (month, week, etc) > Contractual agreements with funders may indicate an entity other than > the UU owns the data. And in those cases, you may not be able to transfer the data to another group (at all, much less give them responsibility for it), but you also may have restrictions on distribution (which after having worked in IT for 20+ years, I wouldn't trust to a run-of-the-mill IT department) You can run into problems where the group generating the data obtained restricted data from some other group, and may only use it for a very narrow purpose. This seems to come up more typically with non-US groups (where data *can* be copyrighted) as part of a data sharing agreement. There can also be legal restrictions -- HIPAA for human research (use has to go through IRB approval), ITAR for certain types of physics and engineering data, etc. Animal & ecology data can also be sensitive -- research on endangered species could be used by poachers. Our group has the luxury of *only* distributed unrestricted data (and we won't accept restricted data), but part of that's because dealing with authentication & authorization at NASA requires a ton of extra hoops to jump through ... and if you're dealing with foreign nationals, it's even worse. >> And I admit that it's been a while since I talked to anyone from the >> National Archive, but when they had the second release of 'data.gov', I >> was chatting with someone from there, and I remember that the amount of >> digital data that they were dealing with was orders of magnitude less >> than what our group did.

A registry of data available that meets their inclusion criteria 2. A repository for organizations that don't have a suitable system to serve the data to the public and/or preserve it for the long term (or at least the time frame required by law) One of the big problems is that government IT departments can be at the whim of politicians -- suddenly replaced by contractors ... or everything has to move to some new system (from a company owned by a one of their campaign donors), etc. And let's not forget the websites and databases that are now dark because of a change in administration and the attempts to scrub anything related to 'climate change'.

We intend to have a few more updates along the way, so stay tuned. Our subcommittees for Marketing, Webinars and Sponsorship are all off and running. You may have seen a tweet or two from @RDAPSummit already, thanks to the Marketing subcommittee. The Webinar committee already has great webinar topics in mind and will soon begin scheduling them. And our Sponsorship committee has gotten off to a fantastic start; we hope to keep registration fees at or near the low prices of last year. Consult the RDAP Sponsorship page for more info on your institution sponsorship this great conference. Finally as regards programming: Currently the RDAP18 Planning Committee is finalizing the structure and agenda of RDAP18 such that our two days are packed with high-impact conferencing material. You can expect to see calls for proposed presentations/panels/posters to go out later in the Fall. RDAP18 registration will open up sometime in early 2018.

The accompanying survey is intended for only academic libraries, including those in the health sciences, and should take approximately 10 minutes to complete. The information gathered will be used in developing our service model, and we also expect to incorporate it into one or more presentations or articles for publication. Although we ask for information identifying your library/institution, it will be used only for data analysis purposes. No library/institution will be identified publicly or linked to any particular response. We would appreciate it if someone familiar with your activities related to ELNs would complete the survey before Friday, October 6, 2017. Even if you do not currently provide services related to ELNs, we would appreciate learning about any potential future plans to do so. Please access the survey here: https://pitt.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0V3VMPaTSy6UkbX If you have any questions, please contact Nora Mattern (emm100 at pitt.edu). We thank you for your time and participation.

(Tom) Sent: Tuesday, September 12, 2017 1:27 PM To: Research Data, Access and Preservation Subject: Re: [Rdap] Rights fields for data repositories Dear Daureen, We accept both data and software in our repository so we have a whole list of licenses (most of the non-CC licenses are targeted at software). At the moment we offer: Apache License, 2.0 BSD 3-Clause GNU GPL GNU LGPL CC-BY CC-BY-NC CC0 Other We?ve picked some of the more popular license to try to avoid having a super-long list of licenses (like Zenodo). At the same time, our list is still kind of long. One of the future developments for our repository is the ability to offer more guidance around license selection (like https://choosealicense.com/). We?ve also left an ?other? option because we have found some groups want custom licensing terms. The RDA legal interoperability group is looking into research data licenses that go beyond CC next week (https://www.rd-alliance.org/ig-rdacodata-legal-interoperability-rda-10th-plenary-meeting-open), so there may be even more options coming.
