Research Data Management: Share
Why Share Your Data?
There are many benefits to sharing data. The following list comes from the Research Data Management and Sharing course on Coursera, created by UNC Chapel Hill and the University of Edinburgh:
Finding a Data Repository
The UB Institutional Repository accepts submissions from all disciplines.
To find an appropriate repository for your data, try searching re3data.org - the Registry of Research Data Repositories. You can also browse by subject, to find a discipline-specific repository in the Engineering Sciences, Natural Sciences, Life Sciences, or Humanities and Social Sciences.
ICPSR (Inter-University Consortium for Political and Social Research) is the leading repository for social science data. ICPSR staff can assist in preparing your data for archiving and sharing. See their guide to social science data preparation and archiving.
