Workshop Proposal
Abstract: 

Workshop aims
The workshop aims to help IR managers and others in the repository community to identify strategies and practical steps to deal with research data within the increasingly complex environment of open access scholarly communication. The questions we address through presentations, breakout groups and panel discussion include:
1. What organisational, technology and resourcing capabilities do institutional repository managers need to deal with research data?
2. How can the IR function together with other actors in the institution to develop services to support research data management and long-term curation?
3. What guidelines and standards are needed to integrate IRs into the wider data repository ecology that includes research information systems, publishers and disciplinary data repositories?
Learning outcomes
• Learn about a variety of roles institutional repositories are playing in supporting research data management.
• Identify options for improving RDM and the re-use of research data via institutional repositories.
• Gain ideas of how you and your repository can have more impact in the research ecosystem.
