Hi Chris, Our user engagement is low, to say the least. This is largely because we've not had the staffing resources to promote RDM widely. Though I'm hoping this will change in the next year or so. We have a similar system, whereby academics can create their own records in Pure but the library check it before it goes live. I know there are arguments for and against using Pure for research data, but the overwhelming argument in it's favor was that it means everything research-related (ie. publications, projects, impact, data etc) were all in one place.
