Data Steward Tasks - finishing research

WUR data policy

The WUR data policy stipulates that all data sets underlying publications (e.g. articles, reports, theses) must be archived for at least 10 years. Additionally, archived data sets have to be registered.

Data steward tasks

During this phase, the data steward:

• supports researchers with research data archiving
• directs researchers towards the archiving services of the Data Desk
• directs researchers to pure.library@wur.nl for registration of archived data sets
• informs (where to find information) about data and software licences
