CoreTrustSeal – Levels of Curation & Preservation: Towards an Inclusive Repository Typology
Abstract:
Join our upcoming webinar for updates from CoreTrustSeal. By the end of this year, a new CoreTrustSeal Board will be elected and take office. Olivier Rouchon, current Chair, and Hervé L’Hours, current Vice-Chair, will provide an update on the newly elected Board members and discuss the requirements revision process.
They will also offer an overview of recent position and discussion papers that explore the evolution of curation and preservation levels with implications for an inclusive typology of repositories based on the ‘level of care’ they provide. The papers have been published for community review. A status update on the next steps will be provided.

Making Research Data Publicly Accessible: Estimates of Institutional & Researcher Expenses
Abstract:
Earlier this year, the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) released an important report titled “Making Research Data Publicly Accessible: Estimates of Institutional & Researcher Expenses.” Stemming from the NSF-funded Realities of Academic Data Sharing (RADS) project, the report illuminates the financial commitments that institutions have undertaken to align with public access and data-sharing mandates. The full report can be accessed via the DOI link.
In our upcoming webinar, Cynthia Hudson Vitale, Shawna Taylor, and Jonathan Peters will explore the report’s insights on institutional expenses. They will shed light on costs shouldered not only by central campus offices—including libraries, IT departments, and research administrations—but also by researchers themselves as they engage in a variety of data-sharing activities. Join us for an informative session that explores both the challenges and investments associated with making research data widely available.
