Withdrawal of data

If the uploaded research object must later be withdrawn, the reason for the withdrawal will be indicated on a tombstone page, which will henceforth be served in its place. Withdrawal is considered an exceptional action, which normally should be requested and fully justified by the original uploader. In any other circumstance reasonable attempts will be made to contact the original uploader to obtain consent. The DOI and the URL of the original object are retained.

Revocation of DOIs

Content not considered to fall under the scope of the repository will be removed and associated DOIs issued by Zenodo revoked. User access may be revoked on violation of Terms of Use.

Preservation of data

Items will be retained for at least 20 years

Zenodo makes no promises of usability and understandability of deposited objects over time.

Data files and metadata are backed up nightly and replicated into multiple copies in the online system.

All data files are stored along with a MD5 checksum of the file content.

    

 

Metadata

All metadata is exported via OAI-PMH and can be harvested.

Users must specify a license for all publicly available files. Licenses for closed access files may be specified in the description field.

...

In addition, you should also consider whether you will need to preserve multiple versions of a file or whether the most recent version will be sufficient for preservation. It may also be important to consider whether the project is still in progress or whether it is complete. Long-term projects, such as those that involve sampling of a single site repeatedly over months or years, may require periodic preservation of data before the project is actually considered "finished."Once you have decided what data you want to preserve, you may want to submit it to a domain-specific repository or to the Stanford Digital Repository -- or both!

We have compiled some general guidelines (pdf) for selecting research and other works for preservation in the SDR. This document also includes specific examples and guidelines for various disciplines. Please refer to this guidance as you are selecting data for preservation. Do not hesitate to contact us if you have questions
