National Academies Report on International Data
Sharing Sy
I wanted to share the following report announcement with the CNI
community.
Clifford Lynch
Director, CNI
(full disclosure: I am the current co-chair of the Academies
Board on Research Data and Information, which is one of the groups
within the academy involved in developing this report.)(
---------------------
The Board on International Scientific
Organizations (BISO), and the U.S. Committee on Data for Science and
Technology (US CODATA) under the Board on Research Data and
Information (BRDI), in consultation with the Committee on Freedom and
Responsibility in the conduct of Science (CFRS) of the International
Council for Science ICSU), organized a 2-day international symposium
in Washington, DC on 18-19 April 2011 on The Case for International
Sharing of Scientific Data: A Focus on Developing Countries . The
main objective of the symposium was to gain a better understanding of
the data access and sharing situation in the developing world, with a
focus on barriers, opportunities, and future actions.
Please feel free to pass this information
along to others who may be interested. (Apologies for
