The big picture
2 |
• Appeal to researchers to describe and manage their data, for:
• Accountability: publicly funded research, responsibility to provide access to data
• Access to data is 1 step towards reproducibility
• Reuse: data product used by other researchers; same datasets, multiple analyses
• Reputation: protection against loss of data, broken links to data, unreadable media
Data citation in CSIRO| Anne Stevenson
The big picture
3 |
• Research data is a critical enabler of CSIRO’s collaborative science.
• CSIRO IM&T recognises that research data is a valuable organisational asset that needs to be managed.
• Data citation is part of this bigger picture.
• Global movement from funders and journal publishers to support and promote data sharing and citation• Nature, Science, PLoS, ARC ...

• Research data is a critical enabler of CSIRO’s collaborative science.
• CSIRO IM&T recognises that research data is a valuable organisational asset that needs to be managed. • 20TB of Parkes pulsar data is one example of data-driven
discovery.• Needs to be managed, protected against loss, versioned,
described, made broadly available.• Work is underway to process Parkes pulsar observations in
DAP, in order to detect differences in pulse arrival times from an array of pulsars in an attempt to detect gravitational waves.

The big picture: Carrots
• Recognition for managing data: get your data cited:
• Carrot: linking to data from publications can raise citation rates Piwowar HA, Vision TJ. (2013) Data reuse and the open data citation advantage. PeerJ 1:e175 http://dx.doi.org/10.7717/peerj.175

• Data reuse and the open data citation advantage• Piwowar HA, Vision TJ. (2013) Data reuse and the open data citation
advantage. PeerJ 1:e175 • http://dx.doi.org/10.7717/peerj.175• (gene expression microarray data)• After accounting for other factors affecting citation rate, we find a robust
citation benefit from open data, although a smaller one than previously reported. We conclude there is a direct effect of third-party data reuse that persists for years beyond the time when researchers have published most of the papers reusing their own data.

The big picture
• Linking to Data - Effect on Citation Rates in Astronomy• Edwin A. Henneken, Alberto Accomazzi• http://arxiv.org/abs/1111.3618• Is there a difference in citation rates between articles that were published
with links to data and articles that were not? Besides being interesting from a purely academic point of view, this question is also highly relevant for the process of furthering science. Data sharing not only helps the process of verification of claims, but also the discovery of new findings in archival data.

In place
An automated process to:• Deliver a DOI for a publically available dataset
– a PID (a handle) for a “non-public” dataset• Present an attribution statement within the collection:
– Visible during the creation of the record in the Data Access Portal (DAP)– Any changes made to the record during the deposit process are reflected in
the attribution– Can be copied for use in publications
Facility to provide bidirectional linking between data and publications

Data citation in CSIRO| Anne Stevenson
In place
• Training sessions for depositing and managing data sets in the Data Access Portal (DAP)
– We can almost hear the attention level increase when we mention DOI minting
• Distributing the ANDS Data Citation leaflet into CSIRO’s libraries, information centres and canteens• Adding Google Analytics reports to wiki (shows most viewed, most
downloaded)• Providing altmetric data for inclusion in annual reports• Exploring tracking and metrics options such as ImpactStory and
Thomson Reuters Data Citation Index• Exploring the export of data set citations into reference
management software

In place• Contacting authors who have journal articles to submit:

In place• Tapping into the internal professional writing and
proposal preparation sessions to encourage referral of data sources
• A dedicated intranet section (this is currently brief and under review)
• Using internal media channels such as Yammer and newsletters opportunistically
• Participating in ANDS’ Project Columbus

But … resistance and reservations
“Do I publish my data then cite it in my journal article, or do I publish my journal article and then publish my data?”
“I wouldn’t release the data before I publish the related article, would I?”

Challenges
DOI management• Researchers “get” DOIs; they understand their relevance &
importance for publications – Natasha Simons• However what about
• DOI minting level, – Object level or– Collection level,
• Changes to the data and dynamic data (Dynamic DOIs (DyDOIs) ?)
• Additions to the collection (e.g. time series)• Collaborative data & CSIRO data stored outside CSIRO
15 |
Data citation in CSIRO| Anne Stevenson
Challenges: Cultural change
• Tracking citations is a great objective, however it’s important that researchers are citing the data they use, and they aren’t necessarily aware that they should – Steve McEachern
• Pose the question in discussions with researchers: what happens if you can’t find your data? – Steve McEachern

Challenges: Cultural change
“In scholarly literature, whenever and wherever a claim relies upon data, the corresponding data should be cited.”
Joint Declaration of Data Citation Principles – FINAL. 27 February 2014https://www.force11.org/datacitation
“ … is probably not enough for a study that leans significantly on another researcher’s hard-won data set to merely cite that researcher, perhaps depriving them of a publication.”
“When a researcher relies on another’s data, for example, it should be standard practice to invite the data-providers to be co-authors.”
Research communities need to agree on standard etiquette for data-sharing.
Nature 507, 140, 13 March 2014. http://www.nature.com/news/share-alike-1.14850

Plans
• Include data collections/citations in internal assessments (Science reviews) and planning
–Project proposals should include data management planning from start
• Expand intranet content on citing publications to include data
• Attempt to recruit “champions” as we are aware that researchers are more likely to hear this message from other researchers than from support staff
18 |
Data citation in CSIRO| Anne Stevenson
Plans
• Communications–Link to publications AND data in media releases, news
items–Use the Google Analytics reports to notify top-
viewed, top-downloaded depositors–News items on data reuse
• Reviewing our DOI resolution to link to CSIRO data regardless of it’s location to ensure that ALL CSIRO data has the capability to be cited easily.
19 |
Data citation in CSIRO| Anne Stevenson
Further plans: Connections• Provenance and its relationship to citation
– Work on integrating provenance into research and data workflow
• Software– Its relationship to the data. How it too can improve data use
and thus citation rate– Software citation in relation to data citation
• In context exposure – increase likelihood of reuse => citation• Linking up our systems
– ePublish, DAP, Staff profiles, Research profiles– Automating feeds to other portals
