We are delighted to announce that IASH now has its own collection in Edinburgh DataShare, where IASH Fellows can deposit and share their research data. Edinburgh DataShare is a digital repository for research data produced at the University of Edinburgh. IASH researchers who have produced research data associated with an existing or forthcoming publication, or data that may be of potential use to other researchers, are invited to deposit their datasets for sharing and long-term preservation. Each dataset deposited in Edinburgh DataShare is assigned a persistent identifier (DOI) and a suggested citation.
The IASH Research Collection can be accessed here: https://hdl.handle.net/10283/9265
There are already a few datasets from current IASH Fellows in the collection, which you can explore to get an idea of the types of data that can be deposited.
To deposit your data, log in through the Edinburgh DataShare website:
