Les données de la recherche Données brutes, traitées, dérivées ? Une distinction portant, à la fois sur le cycle de vie et la nature des données, s'est imposée progressivement, tout en suscitant de nombreuses questions et des débats entre chercheurs ; il s'agit de la distinction entre données brutes, traitées et dérivées. Les données "brutes" (raw data) correspondraient aux enregistrements directs, factuels, d'une réalité (par exemple, des relevés météorologiques). Mais la notion de donnée brute pose problème, d'abord en SHS, où les données (sociales, économiques, textuelles, etc.), sont toujours le produit d'une construction, d'une problématique de recherche, d'un contexte. En sciences humaines, les données ne sont jamais "brutes", mais bien "données" (voir le billet de Sylvie Fayet). Mais en sciences exactes, les données brutes dépendent aussi d'un contexte, d'un dispositif de recueil, etc. Données ouvertes ? Qu'est-ce qu'un jeu de données ?
• Statista - The Statistics Portal for Market Data, Market Research and Market Studies Open Repository Blog : ALA Midwinter 2012 BioMed Central’s Open Repository recently exhibited at the ALA Midwinter Conference in Dallas. Warm and sunny, it was a great change of scenery with excellent food! In a climate of stretched budgets, attendance at the conference seemed low. However it was great that our representatives: Bob Schatz and Nish Thiru were kept very busy at the booth. It was also fantastic to see the support of open access from the attendees and for us to provide an opportunity to inform them about how Open Repository’s hosted solution could help them meet their green, open access needs. Bob Schatz presented a very well-received workshop entitled Institutional Repositories and the Open Repository Solution. If you would like to know more about how Open Repository could help your organization or receive a free demonstration of the service, please do get in touch.

Open Data LMU Listpad_workshop.pdf To Share or not to Share? That is the (Research Data) Question… While public access to research articles is a fact of life for much of the scholarly community, access to research data – while a top priority for many governments and other funders, who see it as the key to future economic growth – remains a challenge. There are many reasons for this, both practical (eg, lack of infrastructure) and professional (eg, lack of credit, getting scooped). The publishing community can and does already help with the former, for example through support for NISO, CrossRef, CODATA, and other organizations and, increasingly, the development of data sharing and management solutions. Resolving the professional issues, however, will almost certainly require action by research funders and institutions. 2,886 researchers responded (3.2%), of whom 2,255 (2.5%) were actively working on a research project or had been in the last two years.
