Why manage data?
Facilitates collaboration: data is easier to share with others
Re-use is possible, which improves research efficiency
Validates research and publications
Increases research impact if made available: Increased citation of articles
 Potential to highlight how many times data has been
cited/re-used Recognised output in Monash’s
research management system Complies with funding requirements

Assumptions
 Researchers create an unknown but substantial amount of researchdata The vast bulk of this data is stored and managed in locations that do notenable easy discovery, sharing or re-use
 Researchers want to be able to manage their data in methods that they
control that make sense with their workflows and disciplinary
expectations
 Monash does not haveenough people to holdeveryone’s hands
 We provide people,tools and services thatenable Research DataManagement (RDM)
