I'm trying to recover my password to the ESIP forum ... but the "Joe mentioned DDC (?) and JIST - reports on citations and other data aspects"

I might've screwed up the first part (DCC, Digital Curation Centre); the second one is JISC (Joint Informations System Committee).

Specifically, the data citation guide is:

	http://www.dcc.ac.uk/resources/how-guides/cite-datasets

(which has an extensive bibliography via their footnotes)

... and they also have other reports & manuals on writing data management plans, licensing, appraisal & selection, curation in general, etc:

	http://www.dcc.ac.uk/resources/how-guides/

... and links to a ton of other things:

	http://www.dcc.ac.uk/resources/

JISC has a list of projects & reports on various topics important to data centers ... infrastructure, preservation, curation, standards, staff development, legal/ethics, etc:

	http://www.jisc.ac.uk/whatwedo.aspx

...

JISC is UK based, but there are groups / programs in Canada and Australia that serve similar roles:

	http://ncris.innovation.gov.au/Pages/default.aspx
	http://www.ands.org.au/

And associated reports and such:
	
	http://rds-sdr.cisti-icist.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/eng/index.html
	http://ncris.innovation.gov.au/KeyDocs/Pages/default.aspx


(and with all of those, we'd have a treasure trove of articles & reports related to data & managing it)
