The Need for Research Data Inventories and the Vision for SHARE

摘要

There is a major movement calling for public access to the results of funded research, both in the US and globally. These resuits include both publications (most notably journal articles) and underlying observational or experimental data. In the US, the funders include federal agencies (where the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy is coordinating a government-wide effort to open up federally funded research), state governments, and private foundations.
