Dryad

Dryad aims to make data archiving as simple and as rewarding as possible through a suite of services not necessarily provided by publishers or institutional websites: Simple Dryad welcomes data files associated with any published article in the sciences or medicine, as well as software scripts and other files important to the article. There is no r... estriction regarding data formats. Dryad works with journals to integrate article and data submission, streamlining the submission process. Once the files are prepared, submission typically takes less than 15 minutes. Dryad provides a single clear and best-practice option for terms of reuse. A curator will check your files for technical problems before they are released. By default, data are embargoed until journal article publication. Dryad makes sure this happens so you do not need to. If it is supported by the policy of the journal, you may, during the submission process, select a 'no-questions-asked' embargo on data downloads for one year post-publication. Dryad will support a longer embargo if directed by a journal editor. You are free to provide additional keywords that make the data easier to discover and additional documentation (in the form of ReadMe files) to help ensure proper data reuse. You have the ability to add new versions of data files in order to make updates or corrections. Dryad can make data securely available for peer review if the manuscript has been submitted to a participating partner journal.Read More
