Abstract
Repositories increasingly accept research outputs and associated artifacts that underlie reported findings, leading to potential changes in the demand for data curation and repository services. This paper describes a curation tool that responds to this challenge by economizing and optimizing curation efforts. The curation tool is implemented at Yale University’s Institution for Social and Policy Studies (ISPS) as YARD. By standardizing the curation workflow, YARD helps create high quality data packages that are findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR) and promotes research transparency by connecting the activities of researchers, curators, and publishers through a single pipeline.
Highlights
YARD (Yale Application for Research Data) is an adaptable curation workflow tool that enhances research outputs and associated digital artifacts designated for archival and reuse
The curation tool is a web-based application designed to process digital artifacts associated with research outputs, including metadata management, and to deliver highly curated research packages into designated repositories
This paper describes a policy-driven adaptable workflow tool supporting the archival and dissemination of high-quality research outputs
Summary
YARD (Yale Application for Research Data) is an adaptable curation workflow tool that enhances research outputs and associated digital artifacts designated for archival and reuse.Quality and curation in repositoriesThe scientific principle of self-correction asks researchers to be transparent about their design, data, methods, and analysis. YARD (Yale Application for Research Data) is an adaptable curation workflow tool that enhances research outputs and associated digital artifacts designated for archival and reuse. YARD, the Yale Application for Research Data, is a workflow tool that facilitates gold-standard curation tasks.
