University Survey on Research Data Management 2025

2025.05.23.

Following the 2021 survey, the ELTE University Library and Archives is once again conducting a needs assessment to map the quantity and types of research data managed by the ELTE University’s instructors and PhD students.

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, they 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 Nemzeti Kutatási Kiválósági Program NKKP project applications, but also by the 'National Position Paper on Open Science' document, initiated by the Nemzeti Kutatási, Fejlesztési és Innovációs Hivatal NKFIH (National Research, Development and Innovation Office) 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 ELTE instructors and PhD students as possible.
