Researcher data practices at Swinburne: results of a survey

This report discusses the results of a survey of Swinburne researchers about their practices surrounding their research data. Areas of investigation included how they store and manage their data, whether they share their data or use others' data, and how they feel about the new ARC rules governing research data. This work was undertaken to understand the differences between larger and smaller universities' researchers' data practices, but also to understand what is happening 'on the ground' at Swinburne with a view to better supporting data management.
