[Irtalk] Research data should be accessible ...

[Ina Smith]

So that it can be scrutinised, verified by other researchers ... so that the general public can trust what is offered to them. The library can play a role in preserving and organising this data, and making it accessible (disseminating it) to others. Assist researchers with data management planning, and offering server space (data repository system) or advise on where data can be preserved/hosted.
