[Irtalk] If You Build It, Will They Fund? Making Research Data Management Sustainable

[Hilton Gibson]

Data management underpins current and future research, funder mandates,
open access initiatives, researcher reputations and institutional rankings.
While it is widely recognized that data management support is necessary,
recognition that it requires sustainable funding is slower in coming. Even
as the community is beginning to understand the costs, it must begin to
address how data management might be funded. This brief report provides an
overview of seven funding strategies and their standing in the US.
Circumstances in seven other countries are described in the appendix.
