Back in December 2014 we posted an idea on the “Research Data Spring” (also named “Research at Risk”), a collaborative initiative for UK Research hosted by Jisc. This is an idea we are hoping to develop in conjunction with the Centre for Information Science at City University London (#citylis) and the researcher-led open access publisher Ubiquity Press.
We have slightly edited our original text and added text from a blog post by Ernesto Priego as part of the documentation process of the #dataspring sandpit workshop in Birmingham, Thursday 26 and Friday 27 February 2015.
