A NATIONAL REPOSITORY PLATFORM FOR SHARING THE CHALLENGES OF LONG-TERM DIGITAL CURATION OF RESEARCH DATA

Abstract

Qatar National Library has launched a research repository named Manara to address the need for curating, preserving, and enabling Open Access to Qatari research output. The repository aims to operate on a consortium-based service model that allows sharing the overall responsibility of curating and preserving a wide variety of research outputs between the Library and key partner institutions, thereby developing a sustainable ecosystem for research outputs in Qatar. The poster presents the work done to establish Manara, including the underlying technical and operational model.
