Researchers have a key role to play in deciding what data can be shared, but it is important to note that there are also other stakeholders (e.g. data sharing must be agreed within the research group, research participants must be informed, and organisational and funder requirements must be checked) involved in making this decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This \u201chorror story\u201d shows what can happen when data is not managed and shared adequately (4:41, CC BY NYU Health Sciences Library):<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"embed-container\">\n    <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Data Sharing and Management Snafu in 3 Short Acts\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/N2zK3sAtr-4?feature=oembed&#038;controls=1&#038;hd=1&#038;autohide=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Always plan well and carry out data sharing carefully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Here is a short checklist for data sharing:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" style=\"list-style-type:1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Data may only be published by permission from the data owner. Make written agreements on data ownership issues with all parties, preferably before the data collection.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Think carefully about which data you can make open. Consult with relevant stakeholders when making decisions. Find out if there are any ethical, juridical or contractual limitations for sharing the data.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inform research participants about data sharing. In most cases, only anonymous data can be openly shared. So, anonymise your data if needed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Update your data management plan, whenever needed, as your project progresses.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Provide good documentation and metadata about the data. Aim at making your data as FAIR as possible. As a part of data documentation and description, provide a contextual framework of your data. Data without metadata is impossible to make sense of or reuse, thus it will likely not get the reuse or citations you might hope for.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Choose a suitable repository or journal for publishing your data and\/or metadata. In Finland, it is also good idea Share your data via a data repository or other service, but in Finland, it is also good idea to describe your data with <a href=\"https:\/\/eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fqvain.fairdata.fi%2F&amp;data=05%7C02%7Ckaisa.hartikainen%40uef.fi%7Cda726e66659b470a98cb08ddde3ddf25%7C87879f2e73044bf2baf263e7f83f3c34%7C0%7C0%7C638911079503844689%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=MZeNYdceTGTuyII9wnMz0J%2BAergqMXYKT8OrnOWQZDw%3D&amp;reserved=0\"><strong>Qvain tool<\/strong><\/a> and publish metadata in the national research dataset finder <a href=\"https:\/\/eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fetsin.fairdata.fi%2F&amp;data=05%7C02%7Ckaisa.hartikainen%40uef.fi%7Cda726e66659b470a98cb08ddde3ddf25%7C87879f2e73044bf2baf263e7f83f3c34%7C0%7C0%7C638911079503874143%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=PifRJb1QuC%2FVcwIc1d7C3Cw%2FRPEsTrXOnnoSOmUBOPo%3D&amp;reserved=0\"><strong>Etsin<\/strong><\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Assign a digital persistent identifier (e.g. DOI) for your data and metadata.

Data journals are publications whose primary purpose is to expose datasets. They enable you as an author to focus on the data itself, rather than producing an extensive analysis of the data which occurs in the traditional journal model. Typically, a publication in a data journal consists of an abstract, introduction, data description with methods and materials, and short conclusion on reuse opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>Publishing in a data journal may be of interest to researchers and data producers for whom data is a primary research output. In some cases, the publication cycle may be quicker than that of traditional journals, and where there is a requirement to deposit data in an approved repository,\u00a0long-term curation and access to the data is assured.<\/p>\n<p>Examples of data journals:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/sdata\/\">Scientific Data<\/a> \u2013 published by Nature<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/rmets.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/journal\/20496060\">Geoscience Data Journal<\/a> \u2013 published by Wiley<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/openarchaeologydata.metajnl.com\/\">Journal of Open Archaeology Data<\/a> \u2013 published by Ubiquity<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/bdj.pensoft.net\/\">Biodiversity Data Journal<\/a> \u2013 published by Pensoft<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.earth-system-science-data.net\/\">Earth System Science Data<\/a> \u2013 published by Copernicus<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/journal\/data-in-brief\">Data in Brief<\/a> \u2013 published by Elsevier<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/gigascience\">GigaScience<\/a> \u2013 published by Oxford Academic<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"accordion accordion-js\">\n\t\t\t\t<button class=\"accordion__button\" aria-controls=\"content-1125\" aria-expanded=\"false\" id=\"accordion-control-1125\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"accordion__heading\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t5. as a supplement to a peer-reviewed article\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"accordion__content\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-control-1125\" aria-hidden=\"true\" id=\"content-1125\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>The authors can provide additional materials, such as datasets, that support the findings of the article but are not included in the main text.

In Finland, <a href=\"https:\/\/etsin.fairdata.fi\/\"><strong>Etsin<\/strong><\/a> is a national service for metadata of research data. Etsin enables you to find research datasets from all fields of science. It harvests information about the datasets and metadata in the national services, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fairdata.fi\/en\/\">Finnish Fairdata services<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kielipankki.fi\/language-bank\/\">the Language Bank of Finland<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fsd.tuni.fi\/en\/\">the Finnish Social Science Data archive<\/a>, but also metadata of datasets located in other repositories are recommended to be added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Etsin, the published metadata on the dataset is open to everyone. The data owner decides how the underlying research data can be accessed and by whom. Etsin works independently of actual data storage locations and contains no research datasets. Datasets can be described and metadata published through the <a href=\"https:\/\/qvain.fairdata.fi\/\"><strong>Qvain service<\/strong><\/a> (Qvain -&gt; Describe a dataset). When producing metadata, it is useful to use general subject headings (Qvain uses the <a href=\"https:\/\/finto.fi\/koko\/en\/\">KOKO ontology<\/a> maintained by <a href=\"https:\/\/finto.fi\/en\/\">Finto<\/a>) for describing the research data with commonly agreed terms. The use of Etsin is recommended for all research projects in Finland. If you are outside of Finland, find out if there are similar metadata services available in your country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Remember:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>There are many ways to share research data: subject-specific and general data repositories, institutional data repositories, data journals and supplements to a peer-reviewed article.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Share at least the metadata of the datasets.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Choose a repository that meets your needs and provides a persistent identifier for your data.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Consult with the data support of your research organisation if needed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Data that will be shared for reuse should be licensed.
