The University Library is excited to announce that we have joined the not-for-profit, global community-governed research data repository service Dryad as an institutional member. With membership, KAUST researchers can deposit to Dryad without paying additional data publishing charges or limiting submissions to data related to articles in Dryad associated journals. Dryad is unique among general-purpose data repositories in that every submitted dataset goes through a curation process to help researchers organize and document their data in a way that will make it easier to re-use.
This is a continuation of the University Library’s earlier efforts (advertised in June 2019) to support researchers in better managing and sharing their research data. For more details, check out the library’s data sharing libguide and learn how to get started with Dryad.
