DCC overhauls catalog to better aid in management of data

May 29th, 2012

Digital Curation Centre is pleased to announce our refreshed and replenished catalog of tools and services for managing and curating research data. The catalog is at http://www.dcc.ac.uk/resources/external/tools-services

This is more than a new look; the catalog has been overhauled to focus on software and services that directly perform curation and management tasks. It splits these resources into five major categories, based on who the intended users are and what stage of the data lifecycle they will be most useful in. Sub-categories contain tables for quick comparison of tools against others that perform similar functions, linked to in-depth descriptions of how the resource can help. This resource will evolve; if you have suggestions of tools to add please send them to info@dcc.ac.uk
