Making Open Data Discoverable Preso
Valen Dan · Figshare · 2015
Presentation for March 18 NISO Webinar: Part 2: The Business Complexities of Granular Discovery Abstract: The business side of discoverability quickly gets complicated when it comes to open data. Platforms that host scientific research outputs must ensure that as data and the foundations of research become more openly available to society, they remain just as discoverable as their published journal counterparts. With this come complexities revolving around file type, proper logging of metadata, versioning, linking to related content, and more. Dan Valen, Product Specialist at figshare, will touch on some of the finer points of granular data discovery while highlighting some of the work figshare is doing to make research data more discoverable and accessible on a global scale.
