The state of data sharing in Canada Stewardship of Research Data in Canada: A Gap Analysis, a report from Canada's Research Data Strategy Working Group, October 2008. Also see the press release, January 12, 2009. (Thanks to Stéphane Goldstein.) From the report itself, Section IX on Access:
Comment. The Working Group turned off cutting and pasting in the PDF report. (Why?) Normally under these circumstances I'd point you to the relevant pages and not bother to rekey an excerpt. But the Working Group didn't paginate the report either. (Why?) This not a good sign of how well the Working Group understands the gap between the current state and the ideal state of information sharing. Update (2/4/09). Kathleen Shearer, the lead author of the report, has unlocked the PDF and added page numbers. Thanks, Kathleen! |
