Background
•
BD2K Aim #1: “To facilitate broad use of biomedical digital assets by
making them discoverable, accessible and citable.” (NIH 2015)1
•
Data robustly archived, and directly cited in journal articles can
provide powerful input to BioCADDIE content and operations.
•
Significant work has been done on data citation and will provide a
foundation on which to proceed.
•
Several top-tier publishers are planning to implement this approach
but need assistance.
•
This pilot will organize a coordination activity and provide
communication across participating groups
Background Documents
•
CODATA & National Academies Reports (2012-2013) 2, 3
•
Joint Declaration of Data Citation Principles / JDDCP (2014) 4
•
Collins & Tabak (2014) on NIH reproducibility initiatives 5
•
JDDCP Implementation Guidelines (Starr et al. 2015) 6
•
ELIXIR/BD2K& BioCADDIE/FORCE11 Workshops (Jan 2015)
7
•
BioCADDIE supplement for Data Citation Implementation Pilot,
subcontract to FORCE11 thru UCSD (Oct 2015)
Objectives
•
Provide coordination & guidance for early adopters of data citation:
publishers, repositories and ID / metadata services.
•
Help establish one or more benchmark implementations by
important early adopters across key use cases.
•
Focus on archiving and citing primary research data.
•
Coordinate with CODATA’s international workshops on data
citation, complementary to the focused early adopter pilot.
•
Publish several peer-reviewed articles and a final report.
•
Provide report on lessons learned to the community.

Approach
•
•
Publishers
•
use JATS 1.1d2/3 schema for documents
•
common data citation workflows & core metadata
Repositories
•
•
use JDDCP implementation guidelines
Authors
•
provide authors a common FAQ web page
•
assist publisher operations group in supporting authors
Proposed Deliverables
1. Principles and Entailments for Direct Scientific Data Citation on the Web - peer
reviewed archival version of the JDDCP with background material
2. Five Steps to Citing Research Data - summary JDDCP implementation guidelines
3. Citing Data with the Journal Article Tag Suite - detailed guidance for using the 1d.2
and 1d.3 NISO JATS revisions for data citation in publishing
4. Data Citation FAQ - dynamic feature on the FORCE11 site
5. Data Citation Ask the Experts - social media feature on FORCE11 website
6. Ongoing input to CODATA Global Workshops on Data Citation
7. Ongoing implementation guidance and coordination across Pilot stakeholders
8. Citing Data in Action: Experiences and lessons learned from the BioCADDIE Data
Citation Implementation Pilot - 1 year report on the pilot
BioCADDIE Integration
•
All metadata and identifiers available for harvesting
•
Ensure that archived content is indexable
•
Coordination with BioCADDIE use case & activities
To Sum Up
•
Data Citation Implementation Pilot over 1 year
•
Organize “early adopter” stakeholders
•
Provide expert feedback, authoritative guidance
•
Enable stakeholders to implement successfully
•
Publish guidance and lessons learned
•
Strong BioCADDIE support and integration
