*IN033: Publishing and managing data: the case for Trustworthy Digital
> Repositories*



*Session Description: *Continuity of science demands that data remain
> useful and meaningful over time. Data created for and used by researchers
> should be managed, curated, and archived to protect the initial investment
> in data collection and to ensure future discovery, access, and reuse.
> Science funders are mandating open data policies that call for long-term
> accessibility and stewardship of data. Publishers are realizing the
> importance of lodging data underlying publications in Trustworthy Digital
> Repositories. Domain and institutional repositories play a critical role to
> address these requirements, however, their sustainability raises
> challenging issues in different areas: organizational, technical,
> financial, legal, etc. Certification standards are important to assess the
> trustworthiness of digital repositories and hence the potential for sharing
> data over a long period of time. This session invites papers describing the
> challenges and opportunities for Earth and space science data repositories
> and services, the value and role of certification, and how Publishers are
> responding.



*Conveners:* Ingrid Dillo, (Data Archiving and Networked Service, The
> Netherlands), Robert Downs (CIESIN SEDAC, USA), Mustapha Mokrane (ICSU
> World Data System, Japan) and Sandy Harrison (University of Reading, UK)
