Data Citation resources

Data citation resource list is in progress here (sorry it is access restricted, will work on hosting it in a more open space):

Contents as of June 8th copied to this open space for now.

Dryad

Dryad repository: http://www.datadryad.org/

Dryad is a repository designed to capture data at the time of publication. Ingest is coupled with paper submission, and the model for governance and sustainability is based on shared ownership among a consortium of partner journals. It grew out of a desire to establish cyberinfrastructure that would allow for the implementation of a joint mandatory data archiving policy among some of the partner journals and their societies. It is a grass-roots effort that began within the fields of ecology and evolution, but which we would like to extend progressively outward to related 'small science' journals, particularly in applied and basic life sciences. More info is available at: http://datadryad.org/wiki

Open Science

We are going to experiment with doing these projects with "open notebooks."

The wikipedia article is a great place to start learning about Open Notebook Science:
