  • The University Library has announced the beta launch of Deep Blue Data, which is optimized for data preservation and access.  Created as a strategic initiative of the Library with funding from the Provost, Deep BlueData is a platform through which you can meet data sharing mandates and achieve your goals of making data sets more readily available to colleagues and peers throughout the world. This new service expands Deep Blue, which has preserved and provided access to the scholarly and creative work done by researchers on the Ann Arbor, Dearborn, and Flint campuses since 2006. Deep Blue focuses on documents and will continue to do so.  Deep Blue Data was released on February 29th in beta, which will allow time for training, familiarization, and additional interface and functional refinement prior to the full public launch in September. During the beta implementation phase, Deep BlueData welcomes you to deposit your data, which will be citable and discoverable. At the same time, the Library will actively work with you to improve the processes by which data sets get uploaded, described, and discovered.
