DESCRIPTION
Open access promises a great deal, but will your dataset be lost in cyberspace and remain unused? What are you doing to ensure discovery and utility for a range of publics? In this session you'll learn about the work done at OECD to make data both discoverable and useful to experts and lay users alike. You'll be introduced to OECD's citation tool and see some of the visualizations being developed to make data tell stories. You'll also see how OECD is presenting its datasets alongside books and journals in a single, seamless, service that is part of the global information network for researchers and students. Finally, Christmas comes early for anyone with an iPhone or iPad. Open Data? There's an OECD App for that.

for data!
NOW!
What does it take to make data equal?
Dataset home page with DOI
Datasets in aggregation platforms
Alerts when new data is released
More data like this!
Links from statistician’s home page
Datasets listed on sites like arXiv?
MARC records for OPACs
Datasets in A&I services
Links from statistical societies
And
this is
a lot of
work!
And here’s one we prepared earlier
Periodicals
Books Working Papers
Datasets Data Tables
Networked ebooks and ejournals
One search engine
710 Datasets
10,081 Tables
And every single one with
equal bibliographic status to books, journals and working papers.
And because we’re using the same bibliographic systems . . .
