<a href="http://drc.ohiolink.edu/pages/FAQ.xml"><span style="color:#1F497D">http://drc.ohiolink.edu/pages/FAQ.xml</span></a> Ohiolink no longer supports the storage of our content and our content has been moved back to servers at UC. But we have a similar

and are involved in Project Hydra <a href="http://projecthydra.org/"><span style="color:#1F497D">http://projecthydra.org/</span></a>. Though this repository is not yet available to the whole UC community, we are working with early adopters to tailor functionality

<span style="color:#1F497D">https://scholar.uc.edu/coll_pol_request</span></a>. Scholar is unique in our repositories as the submission is a self submission process. I am quoting our director of digital repositories in pointing out that “</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">in
our distribution license, we explicitly state that we do not want data that is “</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D;background:white">classified as restricted, per the<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><a href="http://www.uc.edu/content/dam/uc/infosec/docs/policies/Data_Protection_Policy_9_1_1.pdf"><span style="color:#1F497D;background:white">University
of Cincinnati Data Protection Policy, Policy 9.1.1.</span></a>” I think it would be fair to add that we will likely need to clarify other policies about data, maybe not exactly in the category of selection and appraisal, but for example to advise researchers
on the best technical strategy for ‘big data’. “<o:p></o:p></span></p>
