Long Paper: “We’re all doing the best we can with what we’ve got” : Preservation practices of Data Curation Network members

Abstract

Over the course of six weeks, members of the Data Curation Network were interviewed by the Assistant Director to discuss their research data preservation practices. Through these semi-structured interviews, several commonalities emerged, including key challenges that will need to be addressed to ensure the long-term reusability of research data as well as the similar mentality many institutions expressed: that they are doing the best they can with what they have. The authors conclude by identifying areas of potential future research as well as practical collaboration opportunities.
