With volumes of data increasing, and budgets to manage these data unable to keep pace, investments in digital preservation must be strategic and targeted to ensure the best value for money more than ever before. To help organisations develop sustainable and cost-effective solutions that meet particular and distinct needs, they will first need to understand what is driving their investment and where it will have the most impact.
One solution for optimising the impact of such investments in digital preservation may be through sharing infrastructure, resources and effort among complementary institutions.
This open event is designed to share lessons learned about shared services in the context of research data management, and how these may be applied to groups of complementary organisations of every type, in every sector.
Presentations will:
- Identify the benefits and opportunities which are derived from sharing resources and infrastructure
- Identify the challenges to sharing and how these might be met
- Present use cases where services are currently being shared
- Introduce the Research Data Shared Service as a potential mechanism for sharing services
