Making underlying research data openly available is a prevailing expectation of many institutions and funders, accelerated by new guidelines from OSTP and others. We can expect the demand for data publishing to only increase over time, but is the scholarly communications community prepared to respond? What are the impacts of data-sharing mandates on researchers? Do these impacts vary across fields of study? What new data types and formats are coming out of the latest research? This panel will explore the challenges and opportunities in research data sharing, indexing, publishing, and archiving from the perspectives of data librarians, publishers, editors, and researchers. An esteemed group of speakers will give us a sense of what research data publishing will look like in the next decade.
