Research Data Management


The importance of research data is increasingly being recognized worldwide. There is a growing trend where more and more research funders and publishers require researchers to share and make accessible the data underpinning their publications on some platform.

 

The University of Pécs Library and Knowledge Centre is committed to providing extensive support to the research community in fully exploiting the potential of research data, ensuring that they are integrated into the research ecosystem in a way that is as findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable as possible.

In recent years, more and more research centers, universities, and organizations have established research data repositories. Ensuring permanent access to research data is a challenge for all stakeholders in the scientific community, but the University of Pécs Library and Knowledge Centre is committed to providing extensive assistance in this area as well! For more information on institutional options for archiving research data, please contact: rdm@lib.pte.hu 


Depositing research data that accompanies and validates studies and publications is a fundamental interest for authors, in addition to meeting grant and publisher requirements. Selecting the appropriate data repository can be challenging, especially since the infrastructure in some scientific fields is still being developed, and the national institutional data repository system is also under construction. The University of Pécs Library and Knowledge Centre aims to assist in selecting the appropriate data repository based on the most significant grant, maintenance, and publisher requirements. In the absence of publisher or funder restrictions, numerous general data repositories are currently available to researchers. For more information on the options for searching and selecting the appropriate data repository, please contact: rdm@lib.pte.hu
