FIND, ACCESS, AND REUSE DATA

Participate

We recognise that many different actors, from individual researchers to international organisations, hold a stake in the sharing of data, and that the different stakeholders will each have their own take on the issue, with rewards and responsibilities that vary accordingly. On these pages you can learn more about why and how each of the major stakeholders can participate in the DataCite mission and the wider goal of sharing data.

Researchers

At DataCite we believe that the data management and sharing are priorities that complement rather than conflict with the pressure to publish. The evidence shows that data sharing can provide enormous benefits and ensure due credit. We can help researchers optimise their data management.
