Resource Title A case study on the data management and preservation practices of the research laboratories of the Philippine Nuclear Research Institute
Date Issued December 2018
Abstract This study looks into the data management and preservation policies and practices employed by the researchers of the Atomic Research Division of the Philippine Nuclear Research Institute, based on data management practices in foreign countries and through the Open Archival Information System functional model as background.

Through the use of semi-structured interviews with selected representatives of the institute and based on provided documents, it was found that the practice of research data management and preservation of the institute is only partially supported by policy, with policy focusing on preparation of technical reports for submission and publication. The practice of research data management and preservation relies on the individual efforts of the researchers themselves.

The study recommends the institutionalization of the practice of research data management and preservation through the formation of pertinent policies which can be supported by expansion of the current capacity of the institution and continued professional development of related personnel.
