Dear researchers and preservation professionals, Have you encountered any issues when it comes to sharing, finding, accessing, and working with research data? If you are: - a researcher who works with data on a daily basis, - a professional who manages or curates research data - a professional who works with the technical infrastructure required for managing or curating research data, then your perspective on the future of FAIR long-term data preservation is invaluable.
We invite you to fill out a survey that investigates how research communities work with research data, and how data archives and repositories work with the different aspects that contribute to the quality of research (meta)data. Link to survey: https://nettskjema.no/a/eosc-eden-survey-2026 The Horizon Europe-funded EOSC EDEN project investigates and develops strategies for curation and long-term preservation of research data. One important aspect of the project is to collect insights from researchers and preservation professionals, with the aim of turning identified challenges into actionable improvements. Your professional insights will support our work on: - Improving and standardising curation and preservation practices - Developing the services and tools needed to enhance digital preservation strategies - Enabling the reusability of research data - Bridging knowledge across disciplines - Equipping researchers with the knowledge to answer central research questions Whether you work at a repository or in research, in a large organisation or a small team, and whatever your discipline or career stage, we would like to hear from you. Multiple responses from the same organisation are welcome, and we encourage you to share information about the survey with your professional networks. Filling out the survey should take between 20-30 minutes to complete, and we will keep it open until Monday, 31st August, 2026. You can find the survey here: https://nettskjema.no/a/eosc-eden-survey-2026 For any questions about the survey or the work of EOSC EDEN, please contact Helene N. Andreassen (Project Task Lead) at [email protected]. Thank you for sharing your experience — your contribution is greatly valued! Sincerely, Camilla Hagen Blixhavn, Helene N.
