The University of Oxford Policy on the Management of Research Data and Records
The policy defines the responsibilities of the researchers and the university, and highlights the importance of partnerships both within the university as well as with actors outside "to implement good practice and meet relevant legislative, research funder and regulatory requirements". The researcher is responsible for managing his/her research data according to university and funder requirements, while the university is responsible for providing researchers with access to services and facilities to meet their requirements, with training, support and advice. In addition, the university is responsible for providing the necessary resources to those operational units charged with the service provision.
A specific sub-committee of the University Research Committee was charged to guide the development of services and update the data management policy of the institution (Oxford policy, point 11). Additionally, a Working Group was appointed within the Committee to 'steer development and ensure senior management remain informed, as well as to ensure the involvement of all academic divisions'. The Group also helped with prioritization of requirements and advice on business models (J. Wilson, op cit. 2014. p. 5).
