Following the 2021 survey, the University Library and Archives is once again conducting a needs assessment to map the quantity and types of research data managed by the university’s researchers.
The results of the 2021 survey are available here. The aim of the current survey is to collect up-to-date information and valuable feedback on researchers’ experiences with research data management, their motivations and the challenges they face. In addition, we seek to assess the university community’s needs for library services that support the proper management and storage of research data, particularly the data steward service.
In recent years, research data management has become an increasingly important area. This is demonstrated not only by the data management plans required for NKKP project applications, but also by the “National Position Paper on Open Science” document, initiated by the NKFIH and endorsed by numerous supporting organizations. We believe it is essential for the survey to reflect actual needs, which is why we aim to reach as many researchers as possible.
The questionnaire is available in the Neptun system for instructors and PhD students until 22 June 2025. Participation is voluntary and anonymous, and completing the survey takes no more than 15 minutes.
