Abstract

In the UK, Jisc is developing a national research data registry and discovery service. The service will be powered by metadata harvested from long-established data centres and the newer data repositories set up by universities. A pilot version helped to identify the challenges arising from combining metadata of various levels of detail and quality, leading to a preliminary set of recommendations for discovery metadata.
