University of Glasgow Data Registry Update

I’m very enthusiastic that our live data registry has live metadata in it.  It also has a CERIF export option .

Most of the metadata records include links to data held in third party repositories.

Real Datasets

We’ve lots on our to do list but making progress with our new (more responsive, more robust, and dedicated) server being set up,  DataCite almost ready to go (pending new server), and considerations over standardising fields being discussed with other ePrints sites based around the ReCollect plug-in for Datasets produced by the University of Essex.
