The Research Data Service aims to support data being FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reuseable). Sharing research data has many benefits, from increasing impact and visibility of research, to creating new collaborations between data users and data creators. Data sharing is also mandated by many research funders and publishers.

Data Sharing

Step-by-step guide to data sharing:

  1. check your funder’s data sharing requirements
  2. prepare data to be deposited, including how personal and sensitive data will be handled 
  3. choose a repository (see below)
  4. consider access conditions on the data (restrictions and embargoes)
  5. upload the data and apply a licence to the data
  6. add a Data Access Statement to your research outputs, including publications
  7. add a data record to data.ncl if the data is held elsewhere

data.ncl

data.ncl is Newcastle University's open data repository for researchers to document, archive and publish datasets, where there isn’t a funder specified or discipline specific facility in place. The repository will make research data discoverable, which will promote reuse, track impact and potentially lead to new collaborations.

Data deposited will be preserved for at least 10 years and in most cases openly accessed.

Other repositories

Where possible, we recommend using discipline-specific data repositories: you can find one for your subject via Re3data.org. Some funders expect data to be deposited in specific data centres e.g. ESRC and NERC support dedicated data centres. Also consider whether any agreements with your collaborators include requirements for data deposit.
