Study on Research Funding Agencies in the Process of Scientific Data Opening

Abstract

Abstract:

Research funding agencies are key stakeholders in the process of opening access to scientific data. Using SHERPA website, this paper analyses these agencies from the perspectives of archiving time schedule, archiving location, and the main contents of policies. Based on the analysis of 30 funding agencies’ policies from 18 countries and regions, the study maps out the structure of their data policies, and provides some recommendations for future improvement, including clearly-designated responsibilities, emphasis on planning, and promoting awareness.

Key words:

Scientific data, Openly sharing, Research funding agencies, Data curation
