Duke University, in collaboration with North Carolina State University and University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, is awarded a grant to enhance the services provided by Dryad (http://datadryad.org), a recently launched repository for data underlying the findings in the scholarly bioscience literature. Dryad is distinguished by the close association of data deposition with the process and business of scholarly publishing, and by using article publication as a model for how researchers can benefit from data sharing infrastructure. In a short time, dozens of journals have adopted Dryad as a mechanism for data archiving, and the repository is now at a point of transition to a sustainable organization that has the capacity to make thousands of new datasets each year openly available for reuse in perpetuity. Technical and organizational innovations supported by this award will enhance the Dryad's scalability and sustainability. The technical goals include: automation of metadata curation and preservation tasks; developing more efficient and scalable processes to integrate the manuscript submission processes of journals with the data submission process of Dryad; enhancing the features and usability of the deposition interface; and improving the machine and human interfaces for filtering, searching and accessing repository contents. Dryad?s business model will be refined through evaluation of the costs and benefits of data archiving and data reuse to stakeholders, and continued evaluation of Dryad's role with respect to the many emergent technologies in the world of publishing and data repositories. Dryad's sustainability will be addressed by implementing a nonprofit governance and revenue model that has been developed over the past three years by diverse stakeholders in the research, publishing, library and funder communities. The Broader Impacts of Dryad stem from its potential to transform the way research data are communicated and preserved. The credibility and effectiveness of the research enterprise is due in large part to the social contract behind scholarly publishing. Researchers are incentivized to disclose their work to their peers in return for professional credit. In so doing, they also expose their findings to be confirmed or refuted, and enable other researchers to build upon their results. Dryad seeks to extend this social contract to research data by providing a model for how a disciplinary repository can incentivize researchers to disclose the data that is of the greatest value for scientific reuse, that associated with publications, and realize the manifold benefits of free access to scientific data in perpetuity. This award will provide resources for Dryad to to reach out to the next generation of researchers through educational initiatives and partnerships with the broader community. As new journal and funder mandates raise demand and expectations for data management, preservation, and dissemination services, Dryad - as a stable, community-governed organization - aims to be in a position to provide the necessary infrastructure, as well as provide a focused forum for participating journals, societies and publishers to take coordinated, and well-informed, steps toward improved policy and practice._____________________________________________________________________________

杜克大学与北卡罗来纳州立大学和北卡罗来纳大学教堂山合作，获得了一项赠款，以增强Dryad（http://datadryad.org）提供的服务，这是最近启动的数据存储库，用于学者生物学上的发现。 Dryad的区别是数据沉积与学术出版过程和业务的密切关联，并将文章出版物作为研究人员如何从数据共享基础架构中受益的模型。在短时间内，数十个期刊采用了Dryad作为数据存档的机制，而存储库现在正在过渡到一个可持续性组织，该组织有能力每年公开提供数千个新数据集，以永久性地进行重复使用。该奖项支持的技术和组织创新将增强Dryad的可扩展性和可持续性。技术目标包括：元数据策展和保存任务的自动化；开发更有效，更可扩展的过程，以将期刊的手稿提交过程与Dryad的数据提交过程集成；增强沉积接口的功能和可用性；并改进机器和人类界面，以进行过滤，搜索和访问存储库内容。 Dryad的业务模型将通过评估数据存档的成本和收益以及对利益相关者的数据重新利用的成本和收益进行完善，并继续评估Dryad在出版和数据存储库领域的许多新兴技术方面的作用。 Dryad的可持续性将通过实施非营利性治理和收入模式来解决，该模型在过去三年中由研究，出版，图书馆和资助者社区中的各种利益相关者开发。 Dryad的更广泛的影响源于它可以改变研究数据的传达和保存方式的潜力。研究企业的信誉和有效性在很大程度上是由于学术出版背后的社会合同。激励研究人员向同龄人披露他们的工作，以换取专业信用。这样一来，他们还暴露了他们的发现将被确认或驳斥，并使其他研究人员能够以他们的结果为基础。 Dryad试图通过为纪律存储库提供模型来激励研究人员披露与出版物相关的科学重复使用最大价值的数据，并实现永久性访问科学数据的多方面好处。该奖项将为Dryad提供资源，以通过与更广泛的社区的教育计划和伙伴关系与下一代研究人员联系。 As new journal and funder mandates raise demand and expectations for data management, preservation, and dissemination services, Dryad - as a stable, community-governed organization - aims to be in a position to provide the necessary infrastructure, as well as provide a focused forum for participating journals, societies and publishers to take coordinated, and well-informed, steps toward improved policy and practice._____________________________________________________________________________
