After some encouragement from eb, I'm posting again. This can serve as my journal through a year+ electronic records fellowship that I just started. My goal is to develop a recordkeeping framework for social scientists conducting data-intensive research.
One of my current questions is that of research data. In the records retention schedule at my institution, grant funded research data has a life of 5 years. But what does that have to say about the long-term value of this stuff? Is this just an excuse to not have to take it in (it can be quite voluminous)?
More to come soon...
