It takes two (PIDs) to tango: first steps in developing data and scholarly inter-citation

  • 1. Sciences Po - CNRS

Description

In July 2018, the french minister for Education and Research launched a National Plan for Open Science; this plan, among other measures, prescribes the development of "subject-based and discipline-specific data repositories", while "making open access dissemination mandatory for research data resulting from government-funded projects". 

Still, in 2019, Social Sciences and Humanities data centers' activities are assessed on the sole basis of publications citing a dataset curated and disseminated. Data sharing metrics are not taken into account as a standalone indicator.

However, a growing number of studies emphasize virtuous mutual effects of opening scientific publications and opening research data. 

The Center for Socio Political Data (CDSP, created in 2006) of Sciences Po, partner of CESSDA service provider PROGEDO, is engaged in curating and disseminating research data for the Social Sciences. Historically managing a Nesstar repository, the CDSP was the first french data center to launch a Dataverse repository, in 2016. 

Scholarly publications repositories are evolving, particularly regarding related data access statements (DAS) and dataset citation policies. Jumping at the chance to enhance interoperability between data and scholarly publications repositories, we will describe our contribution to an institutional data citation guideline Inspired by Scholix (Scholarly Link Exchange) interoperability framework model, an RDA Work Group output. For the first time at the CDSP we want to take full advantage of IQSS Harvard Dataverse features, mingling with Datacite and DDI (Data Documentation Initiative) Metadata schemas.
