**With apologies for cross-posting** Jisc are running a workshop at iDCC on the morning of Thursday 22nd February entitled “A Research Data Shared Service in a localised, international context—what could/should it mean for you?” (http://www.dcc.ac.uk/events/idcc18/workshops#workshop6). Jisc have been piloting our Research Data Shared Service (RDSS) https://www.jisc.ac.uk/rd/projects/research-data-shared-service for use by the UK HE and Research communities which is due to launch as a production service in summer 2018. At that time we will be in a position to deliver the service to other markets, including the international community, and to support other use cases that require repository, preservation and reporting systems. As well as individual institutional services, multi-tenanted / consortium products are already under development and we have choices to make regarding the features to be incorporated in the minimum viable product (MVP) that will become the first release of these consortium products. This half day workshop is intended to introduce RDSS to the international community, flesh out use cases and to identify the must have features for communities other than the UK HE/Research community. Obviously, there will be overlap, but it is almost inevitable that priorities will be different and some features will be totally new. Registrations (http://www.epay.ed.ac.uk/conferences-events/information-services/information-services-events/13th-international-digital-curation-conference-workshop-booking-only) for the workshop close on the 9th of this month so there is still time to get involved and to influence the initial internationalised development roadmap for RDSS, making sure it becomes the product you want to use. (attendees will be sent a briefing paper about RDSS before this workshop) Agenda ===== 09:00 Introduction/Overview of RDSS Including Introduction to RDSS in an international context—how it might work 09:30 Workshop session 1 Workshopping around a number of questions designed to draw out the top priorities of the international community as regards a localised, international context. 10:30 Coffee break 11:00 Workshop session 2 12:00 Report back and voting 12:20 Open discussion and Summing up Register here (http://www.epay.ed.ac.uk/conferences-events/information-services/information-services-events/13th-international-digital-curation-conference-workshop-booking-only) Rgds PaulS Paul Stokes Senior co-design manager – research data M 07595 056606 Skype paul_stokes One Castlepark, Tower Hill, Bristol, BS2 0JA jisc.ac.uk Jisc is a registered charity (number 1149740) and a company limited by guarantee which is registered in England under Company No. 5747339, VAT No. GB 882 5529 90.
