Istanbul - 13. September 2014

1. Open Access without Open Data - Present situation in Germany

2. Open Access with Open Data - Present situation outside Germany

3. Open Data with IANUS - Future situation in Germany

AGENDA

1. Open Access without Open Data - Present situation in Germany

2. Open Access with Open Data - Present situation outside Germany

3. Open Data with IANUS - Future situation in Germany

Open Access = Open Access Publications

Open Data = Open Access Research Data

AGENDA

» over 260 journals

» 32 have or accept content in German language

» 13 have German title and/or domain (de, ch, at)

1. OpEN AccEss WITHOUT OpEN DATA

Common characteristics

» (traditional) publications = results: journal articles, theses, monographs, conferences, yearbooks, notes, miscellanea, etc.

» PDF files of print version for download or online-reading

» some are peer reviewed

» some have retro-digitised material

» only a few have PIDs (e.g. DOIs) and citation references

» only a few have libraries as technical partners and/or institutional repositories

Common characteristics

» (traditinal) publications = results: journal articles, theses, monographs, conferences, yearbooks, notes, miscellanea, etc.

» print version as PDF for download or online-reading

» some are peer reviewed

» some have retro-digitised material

» only a few have PIDs (e.g. DOIs) and citation references

» only a few have libraries as technical partners and/or institutional repositories

» none offers related research raw data for personal re-use

» none makes uses of additional digital possibilities

2. OpEN AccEss WITH OpEN DATA

Lessons learned so far

» open data is more labour than simple open access pfd-files - both for authors and publishers

» additional questions: selection, documentation, citation, formats, curation, etc.

» other countries and disciplines (especially natural sciences like archeobiology, archeozoology, anthropology, ...) lead the way

» additional factors: technical infrastructure, legal complexity, longterm finances

2. OpEN AccEss WITH OpEN DATA

Lessons learned so far

» open data is more labour than simple open access pfd-files - both for authors and publishers

» additional questions: selection, documentation, citation, formats, curation, etc.

» other countries and disciplines (especially natural sciences like archeobiology, archeozoology, anthropology, ...) lead the way

» additional factors: technical infrastructure, legal complexity, longterm finances

» necessary mental shift: not only publications, but also data is relevant for re-use in future times

» a project financed by the DFG (german funding body), coordinated by the German Archaeological Institute, Berlin (DAI)

» 2011-2014: requirements engineering and conceptual work 2014-2017: implementing technical, legal, financial issues

» mission: building and long-term operation of a national Centre for Research Data in Archaeology and Classical Studies

What is IANUS ?

3. OpEN DATA WITH IANUs

» create an infrastructure to save existing data for the future

» raise awareness for the reusability of research data

» support the sciences by providing easy access to data

» enable researches & projects to manage their data in a sustainable & sensible way

» become a national adress for IT-related questions in ancient studies

What are the aims of IANUS ?

Verband der Landesarchäologenin der Bundesrepublik

Deutschland

Who is IANUS ?

Disciplines

» object oriented archaeologies and building history

» text-based literary, philological and historical disciplines

» natural sciences with interests in cultural research

Institutions, Groups & Individuals

Whom IANUS adresses ?

Stakeholder analysis - Re-use and provision of research data

Why do we need IANUS ?

Re-use and provision of research data

What are the planed services by IANUS ? » Long term preservation:

documentation, migration, archiving and bitstream preservation of research data

» Data Dissemination:

Search and download of research data via web-portal, referencing by PIDs

» Central Registry:

Catalogue about resources in the IANUS archive, but also in other German institutions

Re-use and provision of research data

What are the planed services by IANUS ? » Education and Qualification:

Provision of courses, summer schools, workshops, online-materials for students, teachers and researchers

» Project Support:

Advise in research data management, open access policies and support with sync-and-share services

» IT-Recommendations:

Release of guidelines and minimal standards about the sustainable use of IT in archaeology

» aim is to disseminate archived data as open / easy accessible as possible

» constraints to obey:

› intellectual rights (copyrights)

› protection of sites (looting)

› sensible data (personal privacy)

» rights management for different acces levels:

› general open and free

› embargo for fixed period

› accessible for defined groups

› accessible after individual approval by data owner

How open is IANUS ?
