Citing research data isn’t new; the UK Data Service and other data repositories around the world have been requiring it as part of their standard user agreement for many years. (such as DOIs) supporting verification and attribution or research, helps people to understand the impact of the research and offers the realisation and demonstration hong kong rcs data of efficiencies through re-use. ‘Persistence’ means that, even if the location of the data changes, the DOI won’t, so it always links to the data that were used for that piece of research. A DOI is automatically assigned to any data collection deposited into the UK Data Service. In 2012, DOIs became part of a new international standard, ISO 26324.

To make it even easier, the UK Data Service helps its users by providing pre-formatted data citations with all its collections. You can find our guidance on citing data on YouTube

In her post for the e-science community blog: Tracking the impacts of data, Stacy Konkiel gives an overview of the different types of data metrics, noting that “as few as 25% of journal articles tend to formally cite data. (Sad, considering that so many major publishers have signed on to FORCE11’s data citation principles, which include the need to cite data packages in the same manner as publications.) Instead, many scholars reference data packages in their Methods section… making text mining necessary to retrieve mentions of those data.” Stacy Konkiel, October 2014
A key objective of the UK Data Service is to increase the impact of the re-use of data in the collection, not least through the promotion data citation. Indeed, our objectives for impact include a focus on the re-use of the data.
