3 Big Data Big Data is on the covers of Science, Nature, the Economist, and Wired magazines, on the front pages of the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times. But despite the media hyperbole, as Christine Borgman points out in her 2015 book Big Data, Little Data, No Data, in the examination of data and scholarly research, having the right data is usually better than having more data; little data can be just as valuable as big data. In many cases, there are no data because relevant data don t exist, cannot be found, or are not available. Moreover, data sharing is difficult, incentives to do so are minimal, and data practices vary widely across disciplines.

4 Data and Scholarship in the Networked World Christine Borgman (UCLA) who is an often-cited authority on scholarly communication and data, argues that data have no value or meaning in isolation; they exist within a knowledge infrastructure an ecology of people, practices, technologies, institutions, material objects, and relationships. To manage and exploit data over the long term, Borgman argues, requires massive investment in knowledge infrastructures; at stake is the future of scholarship.

13 Let us look at Part 7 of the Process: Reporting and Publication

14 Publishing data - Definition To make public To release, post, or share some unit of data To link a publication with a dataset To peer review some unit of data To curate, preserve, and steward data Build coherent collections Sustain scientific value Make discoverable and accessible

15 Why data are not publications Why data are not publications: Potential potholes for STM publishers Christine L. Borgman, University of California, Los Angeles Abstract Research data have become scholarly objects in their own right, to be released, shared, and reused. Data publishing has become a popular metaphor for dissemination activities. While metaphors can provide useful analogies, they also can be misleading. This one is particularly problematic because it equates research data with publications such as journal articles. Journal articles are a genre that evolved over a period of several centuries as a way to make scholarly arguments, whereas data are the evidence that support those arguments. Efforts to transfer publication practices such as bibliographic citation and altmetrics to data are based on risky assumptions about data publication that obscure the substantial differences in incentives and infrastructure.

16 Publications < Data Publications Independent units Authorship is negotiated Data Compound objects Ownership is rarely clear Attribution Long term responsibility: Investigators Expertise for interpretation: Data collectors and analysts

26 Class Activity and discussion 1. What does the publication cycle look like now in your organization? Consider data in this question. 2. How has it changed in the last few years, if at all? 3. Go to the CEOS WGISS Report and find a data life cycle mode that most closely resembles your organizations data life cycle. Be prepared to discuss and contrast and compare Lifecycle Models and Concepts v12.docx

28 NOAA Data Publication and Sharing Directive for Grants, Cooperative Agreements and Contracts From Jeff de la Beaujardiere, NOAA Data Architect presentation, Nov. 2015

29 Goals of NOAA Data & Publication Sharing Directive Environmental data produced using extramural NOAA funding are made publicly accessible Manuscripts of publications are publicly accessible (after embargo) Data used to support conclusions of peer reviewed papers are cited and preserved

30 Drivers for Data Sharing Public Access to Research Results (PARR) - White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) Memorandum Increasing Access to the Results of Federally Funded Scientific Research Feb 22, Research results = Publications and Digital Data OMB Open Data Policy May 9, 2013 NAO (NOAA Administrative Order) Environmental Data Management (2010) General agreement that publicly funded data should be made available rather than hoarded

31 PARR Policy Principles The Administration is committed to ensuring that, to the greatest extent and with the fewest constraints possible and consistent with law and the objectives set out the direct results of federally funded scientific research are made available to and useful for the public, industry, and the scientific community. Such results include peer-reviewed publications and digital data. Scientific research supported by the Federal Government catalyzes innovative breakthroughs that drive our economy. The results of that research become the grist for new insights and are assets for progress in areas such as health, energy, the environment, agriculture, and national security.

32 Data Sharing Directive- IV Requirements 1. NOAA Programs shall ensure that environmental data produced as a result of NOAA-funded Grants, Coop Agreements or Contracts are made publicly accessible in a timely fashion, free of chare or at no more than the cost of reproduction 2. NOAA Programs shall ensure submitters of proposals and recipients of NOAA funding are aware of their role in satisfying the requirements of this Directive 3. NOAA Programs shall verify compliance by proposers and recipients of funding with the terms expressed in NOAA Directive 4. NOAA Library shall ensure that all submitted pre publication manuscripts produced with NOAA funding are made publicly accessible, free of charge, after an embargo period of not more than one year

33 Metrics Reporting For Grant Programs - Percentage of data producing proposals including a Data Sharing Plan. Objective: 100% - Percentage of funded data producing award that made data accessible within one year of data collection or creation. Objective: 100% For NOAA Library - Number of manuscripts submitted by funding recipients to NOAA Institutional Repository - Percentage of submitted manuscripts that acknowledge support using FundRef. Objective: 100% - Percentage of submitted manuscripts that cited datasets used in research. Objective: 100%

34 Research Libraries Research libraries have a significant role to play, along with data archives and scientific publishers in providing a safety net for capturing and retaining the products of scientific research J. Jacobs and C. Humphrey Preserving Research Data, Com. of the ACM., v. 47 (9)

35 Class Activity Develop the 1. Roles of Researcher/Data Manager 2. Information Specialist (Librarian) in the Scholarly Life Cycle

36 Roles in Scholarly Life Cycle Researcher/Data Manager Gather Data Information Specialist Create Access to data? Doi s? Create Dynamic Repositories that support pre-publication workflows, collaborative environments supporting data integration? Assist users in finding relevant data and publications Create metadata or metadata standards for discovery Participate in developing data standards Collaborate with scientists early in the research process to create standards that support long term curation and access Play a role in advocating for documentation of rights and intellectual property in relation to data
