“More and more often these days, a research project’s success is measured not just by the publications it produces, but also by the data it makes available to the wider community.

Pioneering archives such as GenBank have demonstrated just how powerful such legacy data sets can be for generating new discoveries – especially when data are combined from many laboratories and analysed in ways that the original researchers could not have anticipated.”

With more and more data becoming available through different data repositories, scientists are faced with a new challenge. How to find the most relevant datasets for their research. This paper presents a study of user requirements conducted in the RDA Europe 4.0 project and provides a set of ten recommendations for how data repository operators can improve their data discovery services to give their users a better search experience.

Turning FAIR into reality, The Final Report and Action Plan from the European Commission Expert Group on FAIR Data has been recently published.

"This document is both a Report and an Action Plan for turning FAIR data into reality. It offers a survey and analysis of what is needed to implement FAIR in a broad senseand it provides a set of concrete recommendations and actions for stakeholders in Europe and beyond. FAIR requires key changes in the practice and culture of research and the implementation and normalisation of certain technologies and practices."
