Research Data Management
All UNE Researchers
UNE has a number of storage options for research data, catering for the diverse needs of our researchers.

The University Library can issue DOIs for research data collections, which can help researchers track citations and build an online profile. For more information, contact the Client Services Librarians team.
UNE's repository for research publications and research data is RUNE. The Library can help you create a metadata record for your completed research data that will increase its discoverability and help comply with funding and publication standards. Should you require open access for your research data collection, the Client Services Librarians team can also help with this.
HDR Candidates
As you begin your candidature, you should take some time to make yourself aware of your responsibilities as a researcher when it comes to research data management.
UNE’s Student Online Learning: Advanced Research (SOL:AR) modules are a useful resource for understanding the entire candidature process from commencement to confirmation of candidature.
SOL:AR Module 5 – Research Data Management provides HDR students with advice on a range of topics related to research data management best practice.
Early in your candidature, before your data collection has commenced it is important to: Are aware that your research data will need to be archived in RUNE, UNE’s institutional repository, prior to submitting your thesis for examination. As your candidature continues, you should revisit your Research Data Management Plans at regular intervals and update it with any changes that have occurred throughout the research process. It is normal and common that your initial plans may change as you continue your research, which is why it is important that you update your Research Data Management Plan regularly to keep track of everything. Toward the end of candidature, the HDR team will contact you to remind you that you will need to archive your research data in RUNE prior to submitting your thesis for examination. It is important to start this process roughly two weeks prior to the thesis submission deadline to allow enough time for the RUNE team to process the submission. Thesis Submission Workshops are conducted by the HDR Team to assist you to prepare for your submission. The Research Data Lead Librarian will be at the workshops to provide advice on how to archive research data.
