Abstract
MaDAM (Manchester Research Data Management) is a JISC-funded project introducing a Research Data Management Service for pilot users at the University. It provides support for individual researchers to organise and share their data within their research group; and through links with Manchester eScholar provides support for archiving and dissemination of research data. Manchester eScholar is the University of Manchester’s institutional repository. Its mission is to sustain and enhance the research reputations of individuals and organisations affiliated with the University. We encourage University researchers to deposit a copyright cleared version of their publications in Manchester eScholar. Once deposited Manchester eScholar ensures the research is preserved for future generations and disseminated as widely as possible. This maximises the visibility of, access to and impact of the University’s research. This session will explore the context of MaDAM and the benefits to the researcher and institution of research data management. It will explain how Manchester eScholar supports MaDAM and demonstrate some of its core dissemination features.
