Digital Curation Centre's new checklist: 'Where to keep research data'.

The Digital Curation Centre is pleased to announce 'Where to keep research data'. This new checklist is concerned with external third-party repositories that offer a managed service to the research community. It aims to assist research support staff whose task is to help researchers make informed choices about where to deposit data. 

The guidance describes different types of service, suggesting some pros and cons of each, and lists sources of information on where to find candidates of the various types.  It then introduces three levels of service that can help match a repository to the depositor’s requirements for their data collection.
