Göttingen State and University Library

Workshop: Sustainability of Digital Research Infrastructures for the Arts and Humanities

DARIAH-EU Annual Event: 26-27 April, Berlin, Germany
# WHICH MODELS OF ORGANISATIONAL RESP. LEGAL ENTITIES PROMOTE SUSTAINABILITY OF DIGITAL RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURES?
<figure><img src="image_4.png" /></figure>

* Single point of contact for DH research communities, institutions, research projects, associations or single researchers

* Integrates requirements of the communities in the architecture of DARIAH-DE

* Counselling of services and technical components, outreach & dissemination

* Cooperation with DARIAH-EU

→ Organisational framework to operate DARIAH-DE in a sustainable way

Concept: NRIC

National Research Infrastructure Consortium for the
Arts & Humanities (NRIC): concept by the ESFRI
Research Infrastructures CLARIN-D and DARIAH-DE

- Describes the status quo and the need for Research
Infrastructures in Germany

- States operating costs & development for DARIAH-DE and CLARIN-D

- Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) as facilitator between research communities and Federal and Federal State Authorities

WHICH WAYS OF FUNDING ARE FEASIBLE FOR RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURES AND HOW CAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION CONTRIBUTE TO SUSTAINABILITY?
<figure><img src="image_10.png" /></figure>

Concept: NRIC

- New: funding of operating costs

- funding by Federal and Federal State Authorities
  and contributions by the consortium partners

- Institutional funding based on the institutional
  “core topics”

- Further developments by third party funded projects

→ Establishing of a social network and a distributed
research infrastructure for the arts & humanities

International Cooperation

- Technical infrastructure: usage and development of common services

- Interoperability: standards, best practices and interfaces for data exchange

- Dissemination & Community Engagement: events, publications, ...

- Discussion on sustainability at a European level

WHICH ASPECTS OF SUSTAINABILITY ARE
COVERED IN THIS CONTEXT? HOW CAN
DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF SUSTAINABILITY BE
ADDRESSED?
# Concept of Sustainability

## Institutional and operative sustainability

- Legal and organisational form, business model

## Academic sustainability

- sustainable support of academic tools and services by associated projects

## Data-specific sustainability

- DARIAH-DE Repository for research data

## Technical sustainability

- DeISU, SLA, ToU

## Further aspects of sustainability

- Impact, usability and: needs/requirements of users
