1 Executive 
summary 
The 
ARIADNE 
network 
developed 
out 
of 
the 
need 
to 
develop 
infrastructures 
for 
the 
management 
and 
integration 
of 
archaeological 
data 
at 
a 
European 
level. 
The 
network 
brings 
together 
existing 
archaeological 
research 
datasets 
with 
the 
aim 
of 
making 
them 
more 
accessible 
to 
researchers, 
and 
to 
build 
a 
better 
understanding 
of 
how 
this 
data 
might 
be 
brought 
together 
to 
create 
new 
insight 
and 
understanding 
within 
archaeology. 
To 
achieve 
this 
ARIADNE 
needs 
to 
consider 
the 
data 
access 
and 
sharing 
policies 
relevant 
to 
archaeological 
research 
datasets. 
This 
report 
provides 
an 
introduction 
to 
ARIADNE, 
and 
the 
methodology 
used 
to 
collect 
information 
and 
inform 
its 
findings. 
Following 
on 
from 
the 
introduction 
in 
Section 
2, 
and 
description 
of 
the 
methodology 
used 
in 
Section 
3, 
the 
context 
of 
the 
move 
towards 
open 
access 
for 
research 
publications 
and 
datasets 
is 
considered 
in 
Section 
4, 
within 
which 
the 
2003 
Berlin 
Declaration 
on 
Open 
Access 
to 
Knowledge 
in 
the 
Sciences 
and 
Humanities 
was 
an 
important 
milestone. 
Open 
Access 
publications 
have 
changed 
the 
subscription 
model 
providing 
researchers, 
students, 
teachers 
and 
members 
of 
the 
public 
with 
free 
access 
to 
the 
latest 
research. 
The 
development 
of 
licences, 
such 
as 
those 
prepared 
by 
Creative 
Commons 
and 
the 
Open 
Data 
Commons, 
is 
helping 
data 
creators 
share 
their 
results 
in 
a 
way 
that 
makes 
conditions 
for 
use 
and 
re-­‐use 
clear 
to 
the 
public. 
Technical 
developments 
are 
both 
facilitating 
data 
sharing 
and 
enabling 
data 
citation, 
which 
is 
important 
in 
allowing 
academic 
recognition 
for 
these 
new 
forms 
of 
publication. 
Section 
5 
is 
a 
situational 
analysis 
based 
on 
a 
consultation 
of 
ARIADNE 
partners 
to 
understand 
thinking 
amongst 
the 
archaeological 
research 
community 
on 
data 
sharing. 
Research 
data 
in 
archaeology 
is 
defined, 
and 
the 
circumstances 
in 
which 
access 
to 
archaeological 
data 
needs 
to 
be 
limited 
are 
explored. 
These 
include, 
amongst 
others, 
the 
sensitivity 
of 
some 
sites 
to 
treasure 
hunters, 
national 
legislation, 
commercial 
value, 
active 
research 
projects 
and 
complications 
over 
the 
management 
of 
rights 
in 
legacy 
datasets. 
The 
licensing 
of 
data 
for 
re-­‐use, 
open 
licensing 
of 
resource 
discovery 
metadata 
and 
ways 
of 
enhancing 
data 
awareness 
and 
the 
culture 
of 
data 
sharing 
are 
discussed. 
Section 
6 
considers 
the 
results 
of 
a 
survey 
of 
the 
sharing 
policies 
in 
place 
for 
the 
datasets 
ARIADNE 
partners 
plan 
to 
provide 
for 
integration 
within 
the 
research 
infrastructure. 
The 
survey 
revealed 
that 
almost 
90% 
of 
the 
datasets 
are 
accessible 
online, 
with 
50% 
openly 
available 
to 
public 
users 
without 
registration. 
Over 
half 
the 
datasets 
are 
made 
available 
under 
Creative 
Commons, 
or 
other 
forms 
of 
open 
licences.

ARIADNE 
D3.3 
(Public) 
Section 
7 
discusses 
the 
issues 
identified 
in 
the 
report. 
Consultation 
with 
partners 
revealed 
that 
access 
and 
sharing 
policies 
are 
still 
evolving. 
The 
aim 
of 
this 
report 
is 
to 
help 
establish 
best 
practices 
in 
the 
management 
of 
rights 
and 
data 
access 
amongst 
partners 
and 
the 
wider 
community. 
This 
means 
considering 
the 
whole 
data 
sharing 
chain, 
from 
the 
archaeological 
researcher 
depositing 
their 
data 
with 
an 
archive, 
to 
its 
integration 
in 
the 
ARIADNE 
infrastructure, 
and 
its 
subsequent 
availability 
to 
the 
research 
community. 
The 
licence 
framework 
discussion 
covers 
both 
data 
deposits 
and 
access 
policies, 
and 
both 
content 
and 
resource 
description 
(discovery) 
metadata. 
Our 
survey 
confirmed 
that 
Creative 
Commons 
licences 
are 
being 
widely 
adopted, 
although 
there 
are 
differences 
in 
the 
conditions 
specified. 
The 
potential 
impact 
of 
the 
main 
licence 
conditions 
(Attribution, 
Share 
Alike, 
No 
Derivatives 
and 
Non-­‐Commercial) 
on 
data 
sharing 
in 
ARIADNE 
are 
considered. 
Finally, 
Section 
8 
recommends 
that 
ARIADNE 
include 
in 
its 
data 
sharing 
policy 
framework: 
• A 
common 
method 
of 
data 
citation 
for 
adoption 
by 
partners, 
as 
the 
means 
of 
ensuring 
6 
academic 
recognition 
is 
important 
in 
motivating 
researchers 
to 
share 
their 
datasets; 
• Allocation 
of 
DOIs 
(or 
the 
equivalent) 
for 
datasets 
ingested 
to 
the 
ARIADNE 
infrastructure; 
persistent 
identification 
underpins 
data 
sharing 
and 
data 
citation; 
• The 
use 
of 
the 
Creative 
Commons 
licence 
suite 
(version 
4.0 
is 
preferred) 
for 
content 
provided 
to 
ARIADNE; 
CC 
BY 
is 
recommended 
for 
open 
access; 
• A 
collection 
description 
be 
provided 
with 
each 
collection 
provided 
to 
ARIADNE 
and 
licensed 
under 
a 
CC 
BY 
licence; 
• Item 
level 
metadata 
records 
be 
published 
under 
a 
CC0 
(public 
domain) 
licence 
to 
enable 
integration 
of 
multiple 
datasets, 
to 
support 
resource 
discovery 
and 
enable 
linked 
open 
data.

2 Introduction 
The 
amount 
of 
data 
being 
produced 
by 
archaeological 
research 
projects 
has 
increased 
exponentially 
over 
the 
last 
ten 
years. 
Archaeologists 
are 
pushing 
the 
boundaries 
of 
available 
computing 
resources 
in 
the 
course 
of 
their 
work, 
generating 
significant 
amounts 
of 
primary 
research 
data. 
The 
ARIADNE 
network 
developed 
out 
of 
a 
need 
to 
develop 
infrastructures 
for 
the 
management 
and 
integration 
of 
archaeological 
data 
at 
a 
European 
level. 
With 
funding 
from 
the 
European 
Commission’s 
Seventh 
Framework 
Infrastructures 
programme, 
ARIADNE 
brings 
together 
existing 
archaeological 
research 
datasets 
and 
infrastructures 
with 
the 
aim 
of 
making 
them 
more 
accessible 
to 
researchers, 
and 
to 
build 
a 
better 
understanding 
of 
how 
this 
data 
might 
be 
brought 
together 
to 
create 
new 
insight 
and 
understanding 
within 
archaeology. 
There 
is 
now 
a 
large 
availability 
of 
archaeological 
digital 
datasets 
that, 
together, 
span 
different 
periods, 
domains 
and 
regions, 
and 
more 
are 
continuously 
created 
as 
a 
result 
of 
the 
increasing 
use 
of 
IT. 
These 
are 
the 
accumulated 
outcome 
of 
the 
research 
of 
individuals, 
teams 
and 
institutions. 
Traditional 
approaches 
to 
research 
protect 
the 
intellectual 
property 
rights 
of 
individual 
researchers. 
Sometimes 
this 
protection 
extends 
beyond 
a 
reasonable 
term, 
for 
example 
in 
the 
case 
of 
excavations 
unpublished 
for 
decades, 
and 
primary 
data 
still 
under 
study 
by 
the 
archaeologist. 
By 
contrast, 
sharing 
data 
was 
perceived 
as 
interesting 
and 
useful 
by 
the 
majority 
of 
respondents 
to 
a 
survey 
completed 
by 
the 
ADS 
in 
2007 
[1]: 
which 
included 
comments 
like 
‘having 
such 
data 
available 
will 
assist 
any 
longer-­‐term 
monitoring 
projects 
or 
even 
cast 
new 
light 
on 
a 
previously 
recorded 
subject’. 
ARIADNE 
aims 
to 
bring 
together 
and 
integrate 
the 
existing 
archaeological 
research 
data 
infrastructures, 
so 
that 
researchers 
can 
use 
the 
various 
distributed 
datasets. 
It 
is 
developing 
tools 
and 
services 
to 
provide 
access 
and 
common 
interfaces 
to 
data 
repositories, 
and 
will 
support 
the 
integration 
of 
datasets 
to 
enable 
access 
by 
the 
community 
of 
archaeological 
researchers. 
To 
achieve 
this, 
ARIADNE 
needs 
to 
consider 
the 
data 
access 
and 
sharing 
policies 
relevant 
to 
archaeological 
research 
datasets. 
This 
report 
begins 
by 
considering 
the 
broad 
context 
of 
the 
move 
towards 
open 
access 
for 
research 
publications 
and 
data, 
next 
the 
situation 
in 
relation 
to 
providing 
access 
to 
archaeological 
datasets 
is 
explored, 
and 
last, 
but 
by 
no 
means 
least, 
the 
sharing 
policies 
in 
place 
for 
the 
datasets 
that 
ARIADNE 
partners 
plan 
to 
provide 
for 
integration 
to 
the 
research 
infrastructure 
are 
examined.

ARIADNE 
D3.3 
(Public) 
The 
principle 
purpose 
of 
this 
report 
is 
to 
define 
policies 
for 
data 
access 
via 
the 
ARIADNE 
infrastructure 
that 
take 
into 
account 
the 
requirements 
defined 
by 
the 
owners 
of 
IPR 
on 
the 
content 
and 
reflect 
EU 
strategic 
policies 
of 
Open 
Access 
to 
Research 
Data 
[2] 
[3]. 
“The 
best 
research 
infrastructures 
support 
researcher 
collaboration 
in 
virtual 
research 
communities 
where 
knowledge 
sharing 
between 
the 
best 
brains 
is 
combined 
with 
open 
access 
to 
research 
results 
and 
state-­‐of-­‐the-­‐art 
computing 
systems 
to 
support 
the 
efficiency 
and 
creativity 
of 
research 
in 
Europe.” 
Neelie 
Kroes, 
Vice 
President 
of 
the 
European 
Commission 
talking 
about 
research 
infrastructures 
and 
the 
potential 
of 
e-­‐Science 
in 
today’s 
society 
in 
an 
interview1. 
Kroes 
went 
on 
to 
say 
“Open 
research 
data 
could 
help 
combine 
and 
share 
the 
works 
of 
different 
research 
groups, 
thereby 
creating 
new 
collaborations 
and 
tackling 
new 
issues 
for 
solving 
common 
8 
challenges.” 
3 Methodology 
A 
key 
element 
to 
the 
approach 
in 
gathering 
data 
for 
this 
report 
has 
been 
to 
understand 
the 
requirements 
of 
the 
ARIADNE 
partners. 
A 
questionnaire 
was 
sent 
to 
all 
ARIADNE 
content 
providing 
partners 
to 
collect 
information 
about 
the 
datasets 
they 
plan 
to 
provide 
for 
integration 
with 
the 
research 
infrastructure. 
The 
results 
of 
the 
survey 
were 
used 
to 
inform 
both 
this 
deliverable 
on 
data 
sharing 
policies, 
and 
also 
Deliverable 
3.2, 
which 
describes 
the 
metadata 
standards 
and 
thesauri 
in 
use 
by 
the 
consortium 
[4]. 
The 
survey 
revealed 
the 
heterogeneous 
nature 
of 
the 
datasets 
being 
made 
available 
for 
integration, 
as 
several 
partners 
hold 
data 
collections 
that 
include 
deposits 
by 
many 
different 
archaeologists 
working 
within 
their 
countries, 
and 
beyond. 
It

Following 
the

of

a 
second

was 
carried 
out 
to 
gather 
partners’ 
opinions 
on 
questions 
relating 
to 
providing 
open 
access 
to 
research 
datasets. 
This 
survey 
was 
open 
to 
all 
partners, 
including 
those 
who 
do 
not 
currently 
plan 
to 
provide 
datasets 
to 
the 
infrastructure. 
It 
invited 
partners 
to 
define 
what 
they 
mean 
by 
research 
data 
and 
to 
discuss 
when 
openness 
needs 
to 
be 
limited 
and 
why, 
how 
the 
issue 
of 
data 
re-­‐use 
should 
be 
addressed 
and 
how 
to 
enhance 
the 
culture 
of 
data 
sharing. 
The 
results 
provide 
valuable 
information 
about 
the 
context 
of 
archaeological 
research.

Sharing 
knowledge: 
Open 
Data 
Technology 
is 
changing 
the 
way 
research 
is 
carried 
out, 
and 
the 
way 
that 
its 
results 
are 
published. 
It 
is 
creating 
new 
possibilities 
for 
sharing 
research 
data, 
and 
this 
brings 
with 
it 
a 
requirement 
for 
new 
thinking 
on 
data 
access 
policies. 
In 
this 
section 
we 
consider 
what 
open 
data 
means 
within 
the 
context 
of 
ARIADNE. 
The 
2003 
Berlin 
Declaration 
on 
Open 
Access 
to 
Knowledge 
in 
the 
Sciences 
and 
Humanities 
is 
one 
of 
the 
milestones 
of 
the 
open 
access 
movement, 
and 
sets 
out 
steps 
to 
support 
the 
transition 
to 
open 
access 
publication 
on 
the 
Internet 
for 
the 
producers 
of 
scientific 
knowledge. 
OpenAIRE 
(the 
Open 
Access 
Infrastructure 
for 
Research 
in 
Europe) 
defines 
Open 
Access 
as 
“the 
immediate, 
online, 
10 
free 
availability 
of 
research 
outputs 
without 
restrictions 
on 
use 
commonly 
imposed 
by 
publisher 
copyright 
agreements. 
Open 
Access 
includes 
the 
outputs 
that 
scholars 
normally 
give 
away 
for 
free 
for 
publication; 
it 
includes 
peer-­‐reviewed 
journal 
articles, 
conference 
papers 
and 
datasets 
of 
various 
kinds” 
[6]. 
OpenAIRE 
suggests 
that 
the 
benefits 
include: 
• improvements 
in 
access 
as 
the 
basis 
for 
teaching, 
research 
and 
valorization 
for 
civil 
society; 
• increased 
visibility 
and 
higher 
citation 
rates 
for 
researchers; 
• free 
access 
to 
content 
worldwide. 
The 
Open 
Definition 
[7) 
sums 
up 
the 
meaning 
of 
open 
data 
as 
“a 
piece 
of 
data 
or 
content 
is 
open 
if 
anyone 
is 
free 
to 
use, 
reuse, 
and 
redistribute 
it 
— 
subject 
only, 
at 
most, 
to 
the 
requirement 
to 
attribute 
and/or 
share-­‐alike". 
Openness 
in 
this, 
and 
other 
definitions, 
means 
data 
is 
made 
available 
under 
licence 
conditions 
that 
permit 
re-­‐use 
for 
free 
(or 
at 
no 
more 
than 
reasonable 
reproduction 
costs) 
and 
preferably 
via 
the 
Internet. 
4.1 Open 
Access 
Publications 
Open 
Access 
Publications 
break 
the 
traditional 
subscription 
model 
of 
academic 
publishing. 
In 
the 
print 
publication 
world, 
the 
publisher 
owned 
the 
rights 
to 
articles 
in 
their 
journals 
and 
charged 
readers 
for 
access. 
In 
the 
Open 
Access 
world 
of 
digital 
publication, 
by 
shifting 
publishing 
costs 
to 
the 
author/funding 
bodies 
and 
by 
using 
open 
licences, 
readers 
are 
able 
to 
obtain 
content 
at 
no 
cost. 
The 
benefits 
of 
this 
approach 
include: 
• Researchers 
can 
read 
the 
findings 
of 
others 
without 
restriction 
• Opening 
up 
public 
access 
to 
the 
results 
of 
publicly 
funded 
research
ARIADNE 
D3.3 
(Public) 
11 
• Students 
and 
teachers 
have 
access 
to 
the 
latest 
research 
findings 
from 
across 
the 
world 
It 
is 
worth 
noting 
that 
the 
Open 
Access 
publishing 
model 
covers 
a 
range 
of 
components 
including 
reader 
rights, 
re-­‐use 
rights, 
copyright, 
author 
posting 
rights, 
automatic 
posting 
and 
machine 
readability. 
Publishers 
and 
funding 
bodies 
have 
differing 
policies 
on 
these 
components 
that 
affect 
the 
degree 
of 
openness 
of 
individual 
articles 
or 
whole 
journals 
[8]. 
4.2 Open 
licences 
Open 
licences 
are 
those 
which 
permit 
re-­‐use 
of 
data 
for 
free, 
and 
in 
principle 
this 
definition 
could 
include 
any 
royalty-­‐free 
copyright 
licence. 
However 
such 
licences 
might 
not 
conform

Linked

that

[9]. 
Berners-­‐Lee 
defined 
four 
expectations 
of 
Linked

(to 
use 
URIs 
as 
names 
for 
things, 
to 
use 
HTTP 
URIs 
so 
that 
people 
can 
look 
up 
those 
names, 
provide 
useful 
information 
when 
someone 
looks 
up 
a 
URI, 
and 
include 
links 
to 
other 
URIs 
so 
that 
people 
can 
discover 
more 
things) 
and 
then 
proposed 
a 
star 
scheme 
to 
rate 
the 
openness 
of 
Linked 
Open

Make 
your

(whatever

The

under 
an

published 
in 
a

such

Other 
than 
by 
writing 
a 
custom 
scraper, 
it's 
hard 
to 
get 
the 
data 
out 
of 
the 
document. 
★★ 
Make 
it 
available 
as 
structured 
data 
(e.g., 
Excel 
instead 
of 
image 
scan 
of 
a

a 
document 
such 
as 
an

To 
get 
the 
data 
out 
of 
the 
document 
you 
depend 
on 
proprietary 
software. 
★★★ 
As 
above

(e.g., 
CSV 
instead 
of 
Excel) 
The

is 
accessible 
on 
the 
Web 
in 
a 
structured 
way 
and 
is 
published 
in 
formats 
that 
mean 
everyone 
can 
use 
the 
data 
easily. 
On 
the 
other 
hand, 
it's 
still 
data 
on 
the 
Web 
and 
not

in 
the

★★★★ 
All 
the 
above, 
use 
open 
standards 
from 
W3C 
(RDF 
and 
SPARQL) 
and 
URIs 
to 
denote 
things, 
so 
that 
people 
can 
point 
at 
your 
stuff 
Now 
data 
is 
in 
the 
Web. 
The 
data 
items 
have 
a 
URI 
that 
means 
they 
can 
be 
shared 
on 
the 
Web. 
A 
native 
way 
to 
represent 
the 
data 
is 
using 
RDF, 
however 
other 
formats 
such 
as 
Atom 
can 
be 
converted/mapped,

All 
the

Now 
the

is 
published 
in 
the

and 
is

to 
other

which 
means 
that 
both 
the 
consumer

can 
benefit

The 
data 
provider 
specifies 
the 
means 
of 
attribution, 
e.g. 
by 
specifying 
use 
of 
a 
‘creator/source’ 
element 
in 
the 
metadata 
or 
a 
citation 
method 
(e.g. 
a 
scholarly 
citation). 
The 
disadvantage 
of 
this 
method 
for 
LOD 
is 
that 
users 
must 
discover 
the 
required 
mechanism 
for 
attribution 
and 
how 
to 
comply 
with 
it. 
Where

are 
applied 
for

5 Situational 
analysis 
The 
European 
Commission 
held 
a 
public 
consultation 
on 
open 
research 
data 
in 
July 
2013. 
Five 
questions 
were 
posed 
to 
stakeholders 
to 
structure 
the 
debate, 
and 
the 
results 
of 
the 
consultation 
were 
subsequently 
published 
online 
[3]. 
Five 
similar 
questions 
were 
posed 
to 
partners 
in 
the 
ARIADNE 
consortium 
to 
gather 
their 
opinions 
and 
to 
understand 
the 
thinking 
of 
the 
archaeological 
research 
community 
on 
data 
sharing. 
5.1 How 
do 
we 
define 
research 
data 
in 
archaeology? 
Research 
data 
can 
be 
defined 
as 
any 
data 
captured 
by 
research 
activities 
or 
used 
for 
research. 
Data 
of 
interest 
for 
archaeological 
research5 
includes 
data 
sets 
produced 
by 
archaeological 
researchers, 
research 
institutions, 
heritage 
agencies 
and 
as 
a 
result 
of 
contract 
archaeology. 
A 
survey 
of 
partners 
noted 
that 
archaeological 
researchers 
also 
use 
data 
captured 
for 
other 
purposes 
including 
airborne 
and 
satellite 
remote 
sensing 
data 
(captured 
for 
commercial 
mapmaking 
and 
other 
reasons), 
and 
digital 
3D 
models 
produced 
for 
museum 
exhibitions 
or 
tourism. 
There 
are 
various 
aspects 
to 
take 
into 
account 
in 
the 
definition 
of 
research 
data, 
including 
the 
conditions 
of 
data 
acquisition, 
how 
the 
data 
are 
used, 
and 
the 
questions 
posed 
the 
data 
has 
to 
answer. 
In 
the 
context 
of 
archaeology, 
data 
may 
relate 
to 
remains 
of 
human 
activity 
that 
have 
been 
destroyed 
since 
the 
data 
were 
captured. 
Research 
data 
must 
be 
identified 
and 
described 
to 
capture 
these 
aspects. 
As 
a 
research 
infrastructure, 
ARIADNE’s 
focus 
is 
on 
the 
datasets 
deposited 
in 
repositories. 
This 
17 
5 
“Research 
data 
in 
archaeology 
are 
the 
outcome 
of 
particular 
procedures 
of 
definition, 
data 
constitution, 
observation, 
capture 
and 
representation, 
as 
well 
as 
perceptual 
and 
cognitive 
processes 
of 
recognition, 
identification 
and 
categorization. 
They 
include 
all 
information 
objects 
that 
capture 
aspects 
of 
the 
domain 
of 
archaeology 
(the 
material 
traces 
of 
human 
activity) 
and 
that 
are, 
or 
may 
be, 
used 
to 
construct 
archaeological 
knowledge. 
They 
include 
analogue 
representations 
of 
archaeological 
sites, 
artefacts, 
ecofacts 
and 
traces 
of 
past 
human 
activity 
(such 
as 
photographs, 
drawings, 
descriptions 
and 
documentation) 
as 
well 
as 
data 
records. 
There 
are 
‘objective’ 
data 
such 
as 
measurements, 
geo-­‐location 
and 
identification 
of 
material, 
and 
more 
‘subjective’ 
data 
such 
as 
identifications 
of 
type, 
cultural 
provenance, 
dating 
and 
attribution. 
Archaeological 
data 
such 
as 
the 
above 
are 
produced 
as 
part 
of 
active 
research 
projects, 
i.e. 
there 
are 
active 
research 
groups 
that 
are 
working 
towards 
studying 
and 
publishing 
the 
results 
of 
their 
research, 
in 
which 
description 
of 
data 
is 
an 
important 
activity. 
However 
there 
are 
cases 
where 
data 
are 
the 
outcome 
of 
archaeological 
projects 
that 
happened 
many 
decades 
ago 
and 
still 
remain 
unpublished”.
ARIADNE 
D3.3 
(Public) 
18 
may 
include: 
• Data 
produced 
by 
research 
activity 
in 
interim 
and 
final 
formats, 
which 
are 
being 
made 
available 
for 
reuse; 
this 
includes: 
o 
data 
produced 
as 
the 
result 
of 
particular 
procedures 
(e.g. 
measurement 
data, 
etc.) 
o data 
produced 
as 
a 
result 
of 
perceptual 
and 
cognitive 
processes 
(e.g. 
identification 
of 
types 
or 
categorization, 
etc.) 
o information 
objects 
that 
capture 
traces 
of 
human 
activity 
(e.g. 
photographs, 
drawings, 
etc.) 
o raw 
and 
processed 
data 
• Metadata 
provided 
by 
researchers 
to 
describe 
their 
datasets. 
In 
practice, 
this 
metadata 
tends 
to 
include 
“content” 
(information 
about 
the 
cultural 
object 
represented 
by 
a 
digital 
resource 
e.g. 
the 
date, 
the 
style/period, 
the 
historical 
geography, 
find 
spot) 
and 
“context” 
(information 
about 
the 
research 
questions 
and 
general 
conditions 
of 
data 
acquisition). 
Metadata 
may 
be 
incorporated 
into 
data 
files 
(e.g. 
a 
ground 
penetrating 
radar 
scan 
data 
includes 
data 
capture 
parameters). 
For 
these 
reasons 
most 
partners 
include 
metadata 
in 
their 
definition 
of 
research 
data; 
• metadata 
provided 
to 
describe 
collections 
and 
their 
content; 
• preliminary 
datasets 
produced 
as 
a 
result 
of 
research 
activity 
(e.g. 
drafts) 
deposited 
for 
archiving 
sometimes 
under 
restrictive 
conditions 
that 
prohibit 
re-­‐use; 
• working 
archives 
of 
individual 
archaeologists 
(e.g. 
field 
diaries 
or 
personal 
notes) 
deposited 
for 
archiving, 
sometimes 
under 
restrictive 
conditions 
that 
prohibit 
re-­‐use. 
• project 
management 
data 
(e.g. 
email 
archives, 
management 
documents) 
deposited

conditions 
that 
prohibit 
re-­‐use. 
ARIADNE 
is 
a 
Europe-­‐wide 
initiative, 
and 
it 
is 
important 
to 
bear 
in 
mind 
that 
the 
definition 
of 
archaeological 
data, 
and 
what 
constitutes 
research 
activity, 
differs 
between 
countries. 
5.2 How 
and 
when 
does 
openness 
need 
to 
be 
limited? 
5.2.1 Active 
research 
projects 
During 
current 
research 
projects, 
whilst 
teams 
of 
researchers 
are 
actively 
engaged 
in 
collecting, 
recording 
and 
analysing 
information, 
openness 
needs 
to 
be 
limited 
to 
allow 
time 
for 
publication 
before 
the 
data 
is 
made 
available 
to 
everyone 
else.
ARIADNE 
D3.3 
(Public) 
In 
general, 
the 
right 
and 
obligation 
of 
publication 
of 
archaeological 
excavations 
lies 
with 
the 
excavator. 
Some 
countries 
(such 
as 
Greece) 
have 
acted 
to 
address 
delays 
in 
publication 
by 
setting 
a 
maximum 
number 
of 
years 
by 
which 
the 
work 
should 
be 
published 
by 
the 
excavator 
-­‐ 
after 
this 
time 
the 
works 
can 
go 
to 
the 
public 
domain 
for 
study 
and 
publication. 
In 
many 
countries 
across 
Europe, 
museums 
and 
custodial 
institutions 
have 
19 
sui 
generis 
rights 
of 
reproduction 
and 
publication 
over 
cultural 
heritage 
objects 
in 
their 
collections. 
In 
some 
cases 
this 
right 
is 
limited 
to 
a 
period 
of 
years 
after 
the 
object 
comes 
to 
light 
for 
the 
first 
time. 
Although 
full 
access 
to 
‘active 
research’ 
data 
is 
generally 
restricted, 
a 
level 
of 
information 
access 
may 
be 
provided 
to 
allow 
other 
researchers 
to 
know 
who 
is 
working 
on 
a 
particular 
site, 
excavation, 
assemblage 
or 
archaeological 
research 
problem. 
Collection 
level 
descriptions 
may 
be 
available 
to 
provide 
information 
about 
the 
kind 
of 
content 
included 
in 
a 
data 
archive, 
while 
access 
to 
the 
full 
content 
is 
restricted. 
When 
depositing 
data 
in 
a 
Data 
Archive 
(such 
as 
the 
Swedish 
National 
Data 
Service, 
KNAW-­‐ 
DANS 
in 
the 
Netherlands 
or 
the 
Archaeology 
Data 
Service 
in 
the 
UK) 
researchers 
decide 
on 
what 
access 
level 
the 
data 
shall 
have. 
This 
can 
include 
restrictions 
on 
access, 
whilst 
projects 
are 
still 
active. 
Researchers 
may 
limit 
access 
for 
a 
period 
of 
time 
and 
then 
make 
the 
data 
available 
for 
use 
by 
students 
and 
researchers 
from 
academic 
institutions, 
etc. 
In 
some 
cases, 
researchers 
may 
restrict 
access 
to 
certain 
data 
such 
as 
personal 
information, 
or 
request 
it 
be 
removed 
or 
merged, 
and 
in 
that 
way 
remove 
any 
restrictions 
over 
the 
rest 
of 
their 
dataset 
(see 
4.2.7 
below). 
A 
contract 
between 
the 
depositor 
(researcher/research 
team) 
and 
the 
archive/repository 
regulates 
the 
openness 
for 
data 
deposits. 
In 
most 
cases, 
data 
is 
deposited 
with 
its 
provenance 
(i.e. 
the 
field 
project, 
excavator 
or 
research 
team 
are 
identified) 
and 
licensed 
for 
use 
with 
the 
proviso 
that 
the 
researchers 
who 
produced 
the 
dataset 
are 
attributed. 
5.2.2 Past 
research 
projects 
In 
principle 
it 
should 
be 
possible 
to 
make 
data 
created 
by 
older 
archaeological 
research 
projects 
available 
for 
research, 
education 
and 
enjoyment. 
In 
practice, 
access 
may 
be 
limited 
owing 
to 
the 
fact 
that 
in 
the 
past 
many 
creators 
reserved 
their 
rights 
by 
using 
“all 
rights 
reserved” 
as 
the 
default 
copyright 
statement. 
In 
more 
recent 
times, 
creators/providers 
of 
content 
have 
begun 
to 
take 
steps 
to 
express 
which 
uses 
of 
the 
content 
are 
permitted 
by 
using 
copyright 
licences, 
such 
as 
the 
ones 
developed 
by 
Creative 
Commons 
and 
the 
Open 
Knowledge 
Foundation 
[16] 
[17] 
(see 
also 
Appendix 
1). 
However, 
the 
use 
of 
“all 
rights 
reserved” 
as 
the 
expression 
of 
copyright 
means 
the 
creators 
of 
many 
datasets 
from 
past 
research 
projects 
need 
to 
be 
contacted 
to 
obtain 
permission 
to 
use 
the 
data. 
This 
limits 
access.

5.2.3 Database 
rights 
There 
is 
a 
specific 
European 
Union 
law 
on 
database 
rights 
(Directive 
No. 
96/9/EC, 
11 
March 
1996), 
which 
is 
implemented 
in 
the 
national 
law 
of 
Member 
States. 
This 
law 
was 
introduced 
to 
recognize 
the 
substantial 
investment 
made 
in 
compiling 
databases, 
and 
to 
prevent 
unauthorized 
copying 
or 
re-­‐use 
of 
their 
content. 
Database 
rights 
are 
established 
automatically 
and 
cover 
both 
substantial 
extraction 
and 
copying 
of 
the 
database, 
and 
also 
piecemeal 
copying 
of 
data 
and 
subsequent 
reassembly. 
In 
principle, 
non-­‐substantial 
or 
“fair 
use” 
is 
possible, 
but 
any 
substantial 
copying 
of 
relevant 
data 
requires 
obtaining 
permission 
and 
agreeing 
terms 
of 
use 
with 
the 
database 
owner. 
In 
addition 
to 
the 
database 
rights, 
the 
arrangement, 
selection 
and 
presentation 
of 
the 
data 
may 
also 
be 
protected 
by 
copyright 
[18] 
[19] 
[20]. 
5.2.4 Archaeological 
site 
location 
data 
Certain 
types 
of 
archaeological 
sites 
(such 
as 
shipwrecks 
and 
places 
where 
there 
have 
been 
finds 
of 
gold, 
silver 
and 
other 
valuable 
objects) 
are 
vulnerable 
to 
treasure 
hunters. 
Cemeteries 
and 
sites 
that 
contain 
human 
remains 
are 
sensitive 
for 
various 
reasons, 
for 
example 
there 
may 
be 
living 
relatives 
of 
people 
buried 
in 
long 
dis-­‐used 
churchyards 
that 
are 
the 
subject 
of 
a 
modern 
excavation. 
Archaeological 
sites 
and 
finds 
on 
military 
installations 
may 
also 
be 
sensitive. 
Legislation 
varies 
between 
EU 
member 
states 
with 
some 
countries 
limiting 
access 
to 
information 
about 
the 
locations 
of 
such 
sites 
for 
protection 
reasons. 
5.2.5 Commercial 
value 
Some 
research 
institutions 
aim 
to 
exploit 
research 
results 
for 
commercial 
purposes. 
In 
such 
institutions, 
employees’ 
contracts 
may 
include 
clauses 
stating 
that 
research 
results 
(e.g. 
data) 
are 
the 
property 
of 
the 
institution. 
Some 
publicly 
funded 
research 
institutions 
and 
individual 
projects 
may 
also 
operate 
on 
the 
basis 
that 
research 
results 
(e.g. 
data) 
are 
to 
be 
made 
available 
not 
only 
for 
further 
research 
but 
also 
for 
commercial 
exploitation. 
For 
example, 
the 
European 
Commission 
Communication: 
‘Towards

research’6 
states 
the 
importance 
of 
making 
research 
results 
available 
rapidly 
to 
benefit 
European 
business 
and 
industry. 
The 
Digital 
Michelangelo 
Project 
(1997-­‐20047) 
was 
pioneering 
both 
in 
3D 
digitization 
of 
masterpieces 
of 
the 
Italian 
Renaissance, 
and 
in 
the 
work 
done 
by 
Stanford 
University 
and 
the 
Italian 
Ministry 
of 
Cultural 
Heritage 
(MIBAC), 
to 
define 
the 
IPR 
over 
the 
data 
produced, 
and 
the 
rights 
for 
dissemination 
and 
commercial 
exploitation. 
The 
3D 
models 
produced 
by 
the 
project 
are 
available 
for 
re-­‐use 
under 
licence 
by 
researchers 
and 
scholars 
on 
application 
to 
Stanford 
University. 
Permission 
for 
commercial 
use 
of 
the 
models 
can 
be 
obtained 
by 
applying 
to 
the 
Italian 
government.

5.2.6 Privacy 
and 
data 
protection 
Privacy 
and 
the 
protection 
of 
personal 
data 
is 
an 
important 
issue. 
There 
are 
cases 
where 
archaeological 
research 
datasets 
include 
information 
that 
directly 
or 
indirectly 
points 
towards 
a 
specific 
individual; 
access 
to 
which 
needs 
to 
be 
restricted 
under 
data 
protection 
legislation. 
5.2.1 National 
legislation 
EU 
member 
states 
have 
differing 
national 
legislation 
regarding 
cultural 
property. 
In 
some 
countries 
there 
is 
legislation 
that 
makes 
all 
material 
cultural 
heritage 
of 
a 
certain 
age 
the 
property 
of 
the 
state. 
For 
example, 
in 
Greece 
everything 
dating 
to 
before 
1830 
and 
listed 
monuments 
(or 
artefacts) 
of 
all 
dates 
are 
the 
property 
of 
the 
state. 
Italian 
law 
(law 
n.42 
of 
22/01/2004) 
states: 
Art. 
107 
“The 
Ministry 
[of 
Culture], 
the 
regions 
and 
the 
other 
public 
bodies 
may 
allow 
the 
reproduction 
of 
cultural 
heritage 
they 
have 
in 
custody... 
[at 
a 
fee]” 
Art. 
108 
“The 
reproduction 
fee 
is 
fixed 
by 
the 
authority 
that 
is 
the 
custodian 
of 
the 
object 
[...]”. 
No 
fee 
is 
due 
for 
reproductions 
made 
for 
personal 
use, 
study 
reasons 
or 
valorization 
(by 
a 
public 
body) 
whether 
by 
private 
individuals 
or 
organizations 
(including 
commercial 
companies). 
Under 
this 
legislation, 
taking 
photos 
of 
cultural 
heritage 
objects 
(including 
museum 
collections) 
should 
be 
allowed 
on 
request 
for 
the 
specified 
uses. 
Any 
works 
that 
are 
produced 
should 
be 
licenced 
under 
a 
CC-­‐BY-­‐NC-­‐SA 
framework, 
permitting 
future 
re-­‐use 
under 
like 
conditions 
and 
limiting 
commercial 
re-­‐use. 
French 
legislation 
distinguishes 
the 
dissemination 
of 
public 
data, 
data 
produced 
through

public 
service 
mission, 
from 
other 
data. 
Public 
data 
are 
freely 
re-­‐usable 
in 
accordance 
with 
the 
intellectual 
property 
(law 
17/07/1978). 
Under 
the 
policy 
of 
public 
data's 
openness 
on 
line, 
the 
state 
has 
created 
an 
open 
and 
free 
licence, 
the 
open 
licence 
Etalab8. 
It 
is 
compatible 
with 
any 
other 
open 
licence 
requiring 
the 
minimum 
to 
mention 
paternity. 
Public 
officials 
assign 
their 
rights 
of 
reproduction 
and 
representation 
to 
their 
administration, 
cannot 
object 
to 
the 
disclosure 
and 
modification 
of 
their 
work 
under 
their 
public 
service 
missions, 
and 
maintain 
restricted 
moral 
rights. 
This 
is 
the 
case 
of 
Inrap 
archaeologists. 
Researchers 
and 
university’s 
teachers 
are 
an 
exception 
to 
this 
rule: 
although 
public 
officials 
they 
maintain 
all 
their 
rights. 
It 
is 
worth 
noting 
there 
are 
circumstances 
under 
which 
legislation 
may 
require 
researchers 
to 
release 
data, 
for 
example 
requests 
under 
22 
Freedom 
of 
Information 
legislation 
and 
Environmental 
Information 
Regulations. 
The 
EU 
Directive 
on 
the 
re-­‐use 
of 
public 
sector 
information 
(PSI 
directive 
20039 
10) 
has 
recently 
been 
amended 
to 
bring 
public 
sector 
libraries 
(including 
university 
libraries), 
museums 
and 
archives 
within 
its 
scope. 
The 
Directive 
looks 
at 
the 
re-­‐use 
of 
material 
already 
public 
saying 
it 
should 
be 
available 
for 
both 
commercial 
and 
non-­‐commercial 
uses. 
Charges 
may 
apply 
but 
the 
Directive 
states 
these 
should 
be 
limited 
to 
the 
“marginal 
costs 
of 
reproduction, 
provision 
and 
dissemination” 
with 
exceptions 
to 
this 
rule 
and 
on 
how 
the 
costs 
should 
be 
calculated. 
For 
archaeological 
documents 
held 
by 
libraries, 
museums 
and 
archives, 
these 
should 
first 
be 
available 
for 
re-­‐use. 
The 
directive 
allows 
for 
exclusive 
agreements 
in 
the 
case 
of 
digitization 
projects 
by 
cultural 
institutions, 
which 
can 
limit 
re-­‐use 
for 
a 
period 
of 
years 
after 
the 
project 
has 
been 
completed

5.3 How 
should 
the 
issue 
of 
data 
re-­‐use 
be 
addressed? 
5.3.1 Licensing 
While 
institutions 
and 
individuals 
are 
subject 
to 
the 
legislative 
and 
ethical 
reasons 
for 
limited 
access 
to 
data 
described 
above 
(section 
4.2), 
there 
is 
a 
trend 
towards 
the 
planned 
release 
of 
research 
data 
under 
licence 
[22]. 
Some 
research 
funders 
and 
journals 
now 
require 
that 
data 
is 
deposited 
in 
repositories 
where 
it 
can 
be 
made 
available 
for 
other 
researchers 
to 
build 
on. 
Releasing 
data 
is 
beginning 
to 
be 
seen 
as 
being 
in 
researcher’s 
interests: 
• Preparing 
data 
for 
release 
helps 
ensure 
that 
a 
clear 
record 
of 
how 
conclusions 
were 
reached 
is 
preserved 
• A 
culture 
of 
openness 
enables 
interdisciplinary 
research 
and 
learning 
from 
mistakes 
as 
well 
as 
successes, 
and 
• Has 
the 
potential 
to 
increase 
the 
impact 
of 
research 
academically, 
economically 
and 
socially. 
Releasing 
data 
under 
licence 
protects 
copyright 
whilst 
clarifying 
the 
permitted 
uses. 
It 
is 
important 
to 
note 
that 
only 
the 
rights 
holder 
(or 
someone 
with 
permission 
to 
act 
on 
their 
behalf) 
can 
grant 
a 
licence; 
this 
means 
the 
intellectual 
property 
rights 
(IPR) 
need 
to 
be 
established 
before 
any 
licensing 
can 
take 
place. 
Some 
data 
centres 
have 
prepared 
licences 
that 
depositors 
are 
asked 
to 
sign 
as 
a 
condition 
of 
deposit, 
for 
example 
both 
the 
ADS 
and 
KNAW-­‐DANS 
deposit 
licences 
[23] 
[24]. 
Deposit 
licences 
set 
out 
the 
conditions 
under 
which 
the 
data 
centres 
provide 
access 
to 
the 
data 
for 
end-­‐users. 
Content 
licences, 
which 
may 
be 
either 
bespoke 
licences 
prepared 
for 
data 
centres 
or 
standard 
licences, 
are 
attached 
to 
content 
items 
to 
make 
the 
terms 
and 
conditions 
of 
access 
and 
use 
clear 
to 
end-­‐users. 
The 
Creative 
Commons 
(CC) 
licensing 
system 
is 
widely 
used 
because 
it 
offers 
a 
series 
of 
easy 
to 
use, 
standardised 
and 
automated 
licences 
that 
can 
be 
attached 
to 
content. 
There 
are 
four 
core 
stipulations 
(Attribution 
(By), 
Non-­‐Commercial

No-­‐Derivatives 
(ND) 
and 
Share 
Alike 
(SA)) 
that 
can 
be 
included 
or 
excluded 
to 
produce 
seven 
basic 
licences: 
• The 
three 
open 
licences 
described 
in 
section 
3 
above: 
CC0, 
CC-­‐BY 
and 
CC-­‐BY-­‐SA. 
• Four 
more 
restrictive 
licences: 
o CC-­‐BY-­‐ND 
– 
Attribution 
No 
Derivatives 
-­‐ 
allows 
for 
redistribution, 
commercial 
and 
non-­‐commercial,

This

is 
the 
most 
restrictive 
of 
the 
CC 
licences. 
It 
allows 
others

it

the 
creator

the 
content

credited 
you 
and 
there 
is 
no 
commercial

Taking 
into 
account 
the 
various 
conditions 
of 
each 
licence, 
the 
licensor 
grants 
the 
user 
a 
worldwide, 
non-­‐exclusive, 
perpetual 
(for 
the 
duration 
of 
the 
applicable 
right) 
licence 
to 
reproduce, 
display, 
perform, 
communicate 
and 
distribute 
copies 
of 
the 
work. 
The 
rights 
apply 
to 
all 
media 
and 
formats 
known 
now 
or 
subsequently 
developed 
(including 
any 
modifications 
technically 
necessary 
to 
exercise 
the 
rights 
in 
other 
media 
formats) 
[18]. 
In 
principle, 
all 
rights 
not 
expressly 
granted 
by 
the 
licensor 
are 
reserved. 
The 
release 
of 
Version 
4.0 
of 
Creative 
Common’s 
core 
licence 
suite 
on 
25 
November

both 
a 
more 
global 
licence 
framework 
(with 
official 
translations 
and 
licences 
that 
are 
ready 
to

and 
one 
that 
addresses 
applicable 
sui

explicitly. 
The 
new

also 
includes 
a 
slight 
change 
to

5.3.2 Data 
citation 
One 
of 
the 
problems 
with 
promoting 
access 
and 
re-­‐use 
of 
data, 
is 
that 
until 
recently 
researchers 
have 
not 
been 
credited 
for 
publishing 
datasets 
in 
the 
same 
way 
as 
when 
they 
publish 
a 
research 
paper. 
There 
has 
been 
a 
move 
to 
data 
citation 
with 
mechanisms 
being 
put 
in 
place 
to 
allow 
authors 
to 
link 
journal 
publications 
to 
the 
underlying 
datasets 
[22]. 
Dataset 
citations 
should: 
• uniquely 
identify 
the 
object 
cited, 
• be 
able 
to 
identify 
subsets 
of 
the 
data 
as 
well 
as 
the 
whole 
dataset, 
• provide 
the 
reader 
with 
enough 
information 
to 
access 
the 
dataset, 
• be 
readable 
by 
humans 
and 
also 
by 
software 
tools, 
so 
that 
services 
can 
be 
put 
in 
place 
to 
use 
the 
citations 
in 
metrics 
to 
support 
the 
academic 
reward 
system
ARIADNE

(Public) 
The 
elements 
of 
a 
dataset 
citation 
are 
still 
under 
debate 
(see 
section 
3.4 
above) 
but 
should 
include 
details 
of 
the 
creator 
of 
the 
dataset 
(the 
author), 
the 
date 
of 
publication, 
title, 
resource

publisher,

and 
its 
location. 
5.3.3 Should 
ARIADNE 
adopt 
Creative 
Commons 
licences 
for

discovery 
25 
metadata? 
We 
asked 
partners 
if 
ARIADNE 
decided 
to 
adopt 
CC 
licences 
for 
resource 
discovery 
metadata, 
would 
this 
would 
pose 
any 
issues 
for 
their 
organization? 
INRAP 
– 
“We 
don’t 
use

for

but 
it 
would 
not 
pose 
any 
issues 
for 
us, 
provided 
there 
is 
no 
commercial 
use 
(CC-­‐NC). 
As 
a 
public 
institution 
of 
research, 
this 
is 
one 
of 
the 
most 
important 
criteria”. 
SND 
– 
“has 
not 
adopted 
the 
use 
of 
CC, 
but 
we 
are 
looking 
into 
it 
and 
will 
give 
researchers 
the 
possibility 
to 
put 
a 
CC 
license 
on 
their 
material 
(data). 
There 
are 
no 
problems 
for 
SND 
if 
ARIADNE 
adopts 
a 
CC 
license 
on 
the 
metadata 
since 
most 
of 
the 
metadata 
at 
SND 
is 
created 
at/by 
SND. 
However 
some 
of 
the 
abstracts

similar 
“running

are 
taken 
from 
(and 
referred 
to) 
reports 
and 
similar”. 
AIAC

“We

already 
adopted

Other 
respondents 
gave 
their 
personal 
opinions, 
with 
one 
individual 
replying, 
“I 
think 
that 
all

be

They 
were 
paid

my 
taxes

I 
want

own 
them. 
CC

a 
good 
way

opening 
becomes 
a 
condition 
for

research 
grant, 
for 
the 
same 
principle 
stated 
above, 
and 
since 
archaeological 
research 
requires 
an 
excavation 
permit, 
this 
also 
could 
be 
a 
way 
to 
enforce 
an 
open, 
although 
IPR 
respectful, 
licensing 
scheme, 
for 
example 
CC-­‐BY-­‐NC-­‐SA 
...” 
Another 
respondent 
said 
“For 
research 
data 
for 
which 
rights 
belong 
to 
the 
archaeological 
archives/organizations 
in 
ARIADNE, 
it 
would 
be

became

An 
attribution-­‐derivatives-­‐non-­‐commercial 
license 
would 
sit 
well 
with 
me, 
and 
I 
imagine 
would 
resonate 
well 
with 
primary 
creators/custodians 
of 
such 
data.”
ARIADNE

(Public) 
A 
third 
respondent 
commented, 
“I 
think 
that 
resource 
discovery 
metadata 
does 
not 
pose 
much 
of 
a 
problem 
however 
open 
the 
license 
is. 
Metadata 
however 
might 
include 
rich 
descriptive 
information 
created 
with 
much 
effort 
by 
researchers, 
archivists, 
curators 
or 
librarians. 
In 
such 
cases 
Public 
Domain 
(CC0 
/ 
ODC 
PDDL 
/ 
Public 
Domain 
Mark) 
might 
not 
seem 
appropriate 
for 
some 
providers 
(CC-­‐BY 
/ 
ODC-­‐BY 
probably)”. 
This 
comment 
prompted 
another 
to 
remark 
“are 
we 
sure 
that 
we 
want 
CC-­‐BY 
instead 
of 
CC0 
for 
metadata? 
I 
mean, 
metadata 
are 
used 
for 
'processing', 
making 
queries 
etc. 
That 
means 
that 
when 
you 
produce 
any 
kind 
of 
result 
based 
on 
such 
metadata 
you 
should 
be 
legally 
obliged 
to 
cite 
all 
the 
authors 
of 
the 
metadata 
involved 
in 
the 
queries...Personally 
I 
would 
prefer 
the 
CC0 
approach 
of 
Europeana” 
(See 
[26] 
for 
more 
information 
on 
the 
Europeana 
approach). 
5.4 How 
should 
we 
enhance 
data 
awareness 
and 
the 
culture 
of 
sharing? 
“Data 
awareness” 
can 
be 
taken 
to 
mean 
awareness 
amongst 
researchers 
that 
it 
is 
important 
to 
share 
data 
in 
an 
open 
and 
trustworthy 
manner. 
The 
“culture 
of 
sharing” 
has 
varied 
according 
to 
the 
type 
of 
research 
and 
the 
data 
produced. 
There 
are 
quite 
well 
established 
practices 
for 
sharing 
excavation 
results 
(and 
data 
sets), 
but 
sharing 
of 
other 
types 
of 
data 
is 
less 
well 
established. 
The 
Swedish 
National 
Data 
Service 
reports 
that 
it 
has 
noticed 
a 
change 
in 
data 
awareness 
with 
an 
increase 
in 
numbers 
of 
researchers 
requesting 
access 
data. 
It 
suggests 
there 
are 
several 
reasons 
for 
this: 
26 
research 
funders 
like 
the 
Swedish 
Research 
Council 
are 
recommending 
the 
deposition 
and 
sharing 
of 
data 
financed 
by 
them; 
impact 
from 
other 
countries 
and 
from 
other 
researchers; 
and 
also 
the 
increased 
awareness 
of 
organizations 
like 
SND. 
INRAP 
suggested 
promoting 
data 
sharing 
on 
a 
large 
scale, 
crossing 
national 
boundaries, 
in 
a 
way 
that 
encourages 
synthesis 
work 
would 
help 
to 
raise 
awareness. 
Outreach 
by 
data 
centres 
such 
as 
ADS, 
SND 
and 
KNAW-­‐DANS 
delivering 
seminars, 
workshops, 
training 
and 
road-­‐shows 
where 
they 
talk 
about 
the 
benefits 
of 
sharing 
data 
raises 
awareness 
and 
encourages 
researchers 
to 
get 
in 
contact 
about 
deposition 
of 
data. 
Incentives 
to 
encourage 
researchers 
to 
share 
their 
datasets 
include: 
• Establishing 
and 
promoting 
the 
practice 
of 
data 
citation 
(as 
a 
means 
of 
giving 
academic 
credit 
to 
the 
data 
creator). 
• The 
use 
of 
persistent 
identifiers 
(PIDs) 
as 
a 
means 
of 
linking 
datasets 
from 
different 
sources 
and 
making 
new 
inquiries 
into 
them 
– 
and 
enabling 
new 
research.
ARIADNE 
D3.3 
(Public) 
• Offering 
tools 
to 
make 
it 
easier 
to 
share, 
such 
as 
simple 
metadata 
applications 
or 
to 
enable 
institutionally 
held 
data 
to 
be 
uploaded 
easily 
to 
a 
central 
website 
for 
archiving. 
27 
Providing 
open 
access 
to 
resource 
description/discovery 
metadata 
as 
a 
means 
for 
researchers 
to 
discover 
the 
existence 
of 
datasets 
in 
repositories 
and 
portals 
is 
technical 
mechanism 
for 
raising 
awareness 
of 
the 
data 
itself.

Survey 
of 
ARIADNE 
datasets 
A 
survey 
was 
carried 
out 
of 
the 
datasets, 
which 
ARIADNE 
partners 
plan 
to 
provide 
for 
ingestion 
to 
the 
ARIADNE 
infrastructure. 
The 
content 
and 
metadata 
being 
made 
available 
were 
analysed 
and 
the 
results 
reported 
in 
the 
initial 
report 
on 
the 
project 
registry 
[27]. 
The 
survey 
also 
included 
questions 
about 
the 
rights 
and 
access 
policies 
in 
place 
for 
the 
28 
collections 
being 
offered 
for 
ingestion, 
the 
findings 
of 
which 
are 
analysed 
in 
this 
section. 
Detailed 
responses 
are 
presented 
in 
Appendix 
1 
below. 
6.1 Rights 
holders 
The 
datasets 
survey 
revealed 
that 
of 
the 
28 
collections 
proposed 
for 
ingestion 
to 
the 
ARIADNE 
infrastructure, 
61% 
include 
content 
from 
many 
different 
research 
teams 
and 
have 
multiple 
rights 
owners. 
The 
collections 
with 
multiple 
rights 
include 
the 
holdings 
of 
data 
archives 
such 
as 
the 
ADS, 
DAI, 
DANS, 
Discovery 
Programme, 
MiBAC, 
MNM-­‐NOK 
etc. 
39% 
of 
the 
collections 
had 
single 
rights 
holders 
including 
AIAC’s 
FOLD&R 
Journal, 
INRAP’s 
collections 
and 
the 
collections 
of 
the 
Austrian 
Academy 
of 
Sciences.

6.2 Content 
copyright 
It 
is 
perhaps 
not 
surprising 
that 
the 
survey 
of 
ARIADNE 
partners’ 
datasets 
revealed 
there 
is 
copyright 
in 
83% 
of 
the 
collections 
identified 
for 
ingestion. 
Only 
8% 
of 
collections 
were 
described 
as 
“open” 
with 
one 
further 
collection 
(3% 
of 
the 
total) 
being 
made 
available 
under 
copyleft 
principles. 
One 
partner, 
KNAW-­‐DANS 
reported 
that 
in 
principle 
it 
is 
possible 
for 
researchers 
to 
deposit 
collections 
with 
additional 
restrictions 
on 
access 
or 
temporary 
embargos 
(while 
research 
is 
completed) 
and 
these 
conditions 
show 
as 
affecting 
6% 
of 
collections 
in 
figure 
2 
below.

Figure

Rights 
in 
ARIADNE

Several 
partners 
whose 
collections 
include 
data 
deposited 
by 
many 
different 
researchers 
reported 
that 
copyright, 
licensing 
and 
conditions 
for 
use 
are 
agreed 
with 
individual 
content 
owners 
at 
the 
time 
of 
deposit. 
6.3 Content 
Access 
The 
access 
that 
is 
currently 
available 
to 
the 
collections 
identified 
in 
the 
survey 
varies. 
A 
majority 
of 
the 
collections 
are 
available 
online, 
with 
only 
3% 
being 
offline, 
and 
only 
5% 
currently 
reported 
as 
being 
closed 
to 
users 
(see 
Figure 
3 
below). 
50% 
of 
all 
the 
collections 
are 
freely 
available 
online 
with 
a 
further 
39% 
available 
online 
to 
registered 
users. 
One 
collection 
(3% 
of 
the 
total) 
is 
available 
online 
to 
users 
after 
they 
click-­‐through 
to 
accept 
the 
licence 
conditions.

The 
survey 
revealed 
that 
42% 
of 
the 
collections 
identified 
by 
partners 
are 
made 
available 
using 
standard 
Creative 
Commons

(Figure

being 
the 
next 
most 
used 
licence 
at 
14% 
of 
collections. 
17% 
of 
collections 
are 
covered 
by

the 
Public 
Domain 
(CC

3% 
under 
CC

3% 
under

and 
8% 
reported

ARIADNE 
D3.3 
(Public) 
47% 
of 
the 
collections 
identified 
in 
the 
survey 
are 
made 
available 
to 
users 
under 
terms 
and 
conditions 
that 
are 
not 
defined 
by 
standard 
licences. 
In 
general 
this 
means 
that 
users 
need 
to 
apply 
to 
the 
content 
holder 
for 
permission 
to 
use 
the 
content 
for 
publication 
or 
other 
purposes. 
Two 
partners 
(ADS 
and 
KNAW-­‐DANS) 
have 
developed 
their 
own 
licences. 
In 
the 
case 
of 
KNAW-­‐ 
DANS, 
data 
depositors 
can 
choose 
between 
the 
equivalent 
of 
a 
CC 
BY 
(By 
Attribution) 
licence 
for 
open 
access 
content, 
or 
to 
restrict 
access 
to 
a 
certain 
group 
and/or 
certain 
time 
(with 
the 
possibility 
of 
a 
temporarily 
embargo 
for 
up 
to 
two 
years) 
(see 
Appendix 
2 
below). 
In 
the 
case 
of 
ADS, 
the 
licence 
permits 
the 
use 
of 
data 
with 
attribution 
for 
research, 
learning, 
and 
teaching, 
and 
also 
for 
commercial 
archaeological 
projects 
with 
the 
provision 
that 
the 
outputs 
end 
up 
in 
the 
public 
domain. 
Thus 
the 
ADS 
licence 
is 
the 
equivalent 
of 
the 
CC 
BY 
NC 
SA 
(By 
Attribution 
Non-­‐Commercial) 
licence 
with 
some 
specified 
commercial 
uses 
being 
permitted 
– 
see 
Appendix 
3 
below. 
SND 
enables 
depositors 
to 
specify 
differing 
levels 
of 
access 
for 
their 
datasets 
with 
some 
sub-­‐sets 
of 
the 
collection 
being 
available 
on 
open 
access 
and 
other 
sub-­‐sets 
accessible 
under 
more 
restrictive 
conditions 
(see 
Appendix 
4 
below). 
It 
is 
also 
worth 
noting 
that 
different 
versions 
of 
CC 
licences 
are 
in 
use 
by 
partners. 
Version 
3.0 
is 
the 
most 
commonly 
used, 
however 
version 
2.5 
is 
also 
used. 
6.4 Metadata 
rights 
As 
part 
of 
the 
survey 
ARIADNE 
partners 
were 
asked 
whether 
metadata 
was 
separately 
available 
for 
their 
content 
and 
if 
so 
under 
what 
licence 
conditions. 
76% 
of 
the 
collections 
that 
were 
identified 
have 
metadata 
available 
for 
the 
content 
items. 
The 
24% 
of 
the 
collections 
that 
lack 
separate 
metadata 
are 
mostly 
databases 
where 
the 
records 
could 
be 
considered 
as 
metadata, 
or 
used 
to 
export 
metadata 
records 
if 
required. 
All 
of 
the 
partners 
were 
asked 
if 
they 
were 
able 
to 
make 
the 
metadata 
for 
their 
content 
available 
under 
a 
CC0 
(Public 
Domain) 
licence 
(see 
figure 
5). 
Twelve 
partners 
replied 
they 
were 
able 
to 
make 
their 
content 
metadata 
available 
under 
the 
CC0 
licence 
representing 
60% 
of 
the 
identified 
collections. 
Two 
partners 
reported 
they 
were 
currently 
thinking 
of 
the 
CC 
BY 
NC 
SA 
licence; 
the 
Discovery 
Programme 
replying 
that 
as 
no 
separate 
metadata 
was 
available 
for 
its 
databases 
the 
content 
licence 
was 
applicable; 
ZRC 
SAZU 
replying 
it 
had 
CC 
BY 
NC 
SA 
in 
mind, 
but 
was 
willing 
to 
consider 
CC0 
for 
its 
metadata 
if 
this 
is 
important 
for 
ARIADNE’s 
success. 
Of 
the 
three 
partners 
who 
replied 
they 
were

able 
to 
make 
their 
metadata 
available 
under 
the 
CC0 
licence, 
INRAP 
is 
making 
a 
subset 
of 
its 
metadata 
available 
under 
the 
French 
Open 
Data 
platform 
and 
suggested 
this 
could 
be 
linked 
to. 
Athena 
RC 
reported 
a 
complex 
rights 
situation 
in 
relation 
to 
its 
clay 
database 
and 
thus 
said 
that 
its 
metadata 
could 
not 
currently 
be 
made 
available 
under 
the 
CC0 
licence. 
NIAM-­‐BAS 
reported 
that 
it 
needs 
to 
determine 
its 
strategy 
and 
suggested 
that 
some 
elements 
of 
its 
metadata 
might 
be 
made 
available 
under 
a 
CC0 
licence. 
6.5 Specific 
conditions 
affecting 
Access 
Some 
partners 
reported 
specific 
factors 
affecting 
access 
to 
their 
collections 
in 
the 
survey. 
For 
example, 
Athena-­‐RC 
reported 
that 
its 
clay 
database 
contains 
the 
results 
of 
its 
analysis 
of 
sherds 
from 
various 
excavations. 
It 
explained 
that 
Athena-­‐RC 
owns 
the 
moral 
rights 
to 
the 
results 
of 
its 
analysis, 
but 
access 
to 
information 
about 
the 
sherds 
themselves 
requires 
permission 
from 
the 
archaeologists 
responsible 
for 
excavating 
them. 
Clearing 
the 
rights 
to 
accessing 
this 
information 
will 
involve 
contacting 
all 
the 
archaeologists 
involved 
to 
obtain 
their 
permission. 
MNM-­‐NOK 
reported 
it 
holds 
some 
sensitive 
datasets, 
which 
include 
information 
about 
the 
locations 
of 
sites 
vulnerable 
to 
looting, 
and 
that 
it 
restricts 
access 
to 
registered 
users 
only 
for 
this 
reason. 
Some 
partners 
are 
planning 
to 
provide 
databases 
for 
ingestion 
to 
the 
ARIADNE 
infrastructure, 
which 
don’t 
currently 
have 
separate 
metadata. 
For 
example, 
Athena-­‐RC 
said 
of 
its 
clay 
database 
that 
they 
have 
difficulty 
in 
distinguishing 
“between 
metadata 
and 
content”. 
The 
Discovery 
Programme 
similarly 
reported 
that 
the 
content 
three 
of 
its 
databases 
(WODAN, 
Mapping 
Death 
and 
the 
Irish 
Stone 
Axe 
project) 
could 
be 
considered 
as 
metadata.

7 Discussion 
The 
principle 
purpose 
of 
developing 
data 
sharing 
policies 
is 
to 
help 
establish 
best 
practices 
in 
the 
management 
of 
rights 
and 
data 
access 
by 
partners 
in 
the 
ARIADNE 
infrastructure, 
and 
the 
wider 
archaeological 
research 
community. 
As 
content 
partners 
are 
responsible 
for 
receiving 
datasets 
deposited 
by 
archaeological 
researchers, 
for 
managing 
access 
to 
those 
datasets, 
and 
will 
be 
providing 
datasets 
for 
ingestion 
to 
the 
ARIADNE 
infrastructure, 
it 
is 
important 
to 
consider 
the 
whole 
supply 
chain 
(see 
Figure 
6: 
Data 
sharing 
activity 
chain). 
After 
consulting 
with 
partners 
it 
is 
clear 
that 
access 
and 
sharing 
policies 
are 
evolving. 
Management 
of 
IPR 
and 
licensing 
of 
content 
is 
well 
established 
and 
understood 
by 
some 
partners; 
others 
are 
still 
working 
through 
the 
process. 
There 
are 
national 
and 
institutional 
variations, 
and 
legacy 
datasets 
deposited 
under 
past 
frameworks 
to 
be 
taken 
into 
consideration. 
However 
it 
is 
clear 
there 
is 
a 
common 
move 
towards 
the 
explicit 
licensing 
of 
content 
and 
metadata 
so 
that 
datasets 
can 
be 
made 
available 
for 
research, 
education 
and 
public 
use. 
The 
activity 
chain 
involves 
the 
management 
of 
rights 
and 
data 
sharing 
policies 
at 
different 
stages. 
Some 
of 
the 
key 
points 
in 
the 
chain 
are: 
7.1 Deposit 
agreements 
with 
content 
providers 
This 
represents 
the 
point 
when 
partners 
in 
the 
ARIADNE 
infrastructure 
receive 
deposits 
of 
data 
from 
archaeological 
researchers, 
whether 
from 
within 
their 
own 
organization 
or 
from 
external 
organizations. 
This 
is 
the 
moment

point 
when 
organizations 
reach 
agreements 
with 
ARIADNE 
to 
share 
their 
datasets 
with 
the 
research 
infrastructure 
is 
the 
moment 
in 
time 
when 
agreements 
need 
to 
be 
reached 
about 
the 
licensing 
of 
resource 
description 
metadata 
and 
content 
(for 
research,

(Public) 
7.4 Licence 
framework 
The 
most 
widely 
adopted 
legal 
framework 
being 
used 
by 
partners 
to 
manage 
access 
and 
sharing 
of 
data 
is 
the 
Creative 
Commons 
suite 
of 
licences, 
and 
therefore 
this 
is 
likely 
to 
provide 
the 
most 
suitable 
framework 
for 
ARIADNE. 
The 
main 
issues 
are 
discussed 
below. 
35 
7.4.1 Resource 
description/Collection 
description 
metadata 
Such 
metadata 
is 
used 
to 
provide 
for 
the 
identification 
(discovery) 
of 
collections, 
sub-­‐collections 
and/or 
individual 
content 
items 
within 
data 
repositories. 
Although 
the 
partner 
survey 
showed 
this 
type 
of 
metadata 
is 
not 
currently 
available 
for 
all 
ARIADNE 
datasets, 
it 
could 
be 
generated 
(at 
least 
at 
collection 
level). 
The 
survey 
revealed 
there 
is 
general 
consensus 
amongst 
partners 
that 
open 
access 
should 
be 
provided 
to 
this 
type 
of 
metadata. 
The 
main 
area 
of 
difference 
was 
whether 
to 
follow 
the 
Europeana 
model 
and 
adopt 
the 
CC0 
(public 
domain) 
licence 
or 
the 
CC 
BY 
licence 
(to 
ensure 
attribution 
of 
the 
content 
provider). 
7.4.2 Content 
licensing 
The 
responsibility 
for 
negotiating 
and 
agreeing 
which 
permissions 
are 
to 
be 
licensed 
by 
archaeological 
researchers 
for 
their 
content 
lies 
with 
content 
partners. 
ARIADNE 
is 
able 
to 
suggest 
best 
practices, 
such 
as 
the 
use 
of 
the 
Creative 
Commons 
licence 
suite. 
The 
main 
issues 
to 
be 
considered 
are: 
• The 
Attribution 
condition 
could 
be 
problematic 
if 
data 
are 
to 
be 
combined 
with 
data 
from 
a 
large 
number 
of 
other 
sets 
due 
to 
the 
administrative 
burden 
of 
crediting 
each 
individual 
contributor 
in 
the 
manner 
of 
their 
choosing 
[22]. 
• The 
Share 
Alike 
condition 
can 
cause 
problems, 
as 
it 
requires 
the 
licensee 
to 
release 
any 
derived 
dataset 
under 
the 
same 
licence 
and 
thus 
prevents 
it 
from 
being 
combined 
with 
data 
released 
under 
a 
different 
licence. 
This 
is 
true 
even 
within 
Creative 
Commons: 
a 
derived 
dataset 
cannot 
contain 
both 
CC 
BY-­‐SA-­‐licensed 
data 
and 
CC 
BY-­‐NC-­‐SA-­‐licensed 
data. 
• The 
No 
Derivatives 
condition 
may 
restrict 
data 
reuse 
– 
it 
requires 
that 
data 
is 
used 
‘as-­‐ 
is’, 
although 
precisely 
what 
this 
means 
in 
practice 
is 
a 
matter 
of 
debate 
[22]. 
• The 
Non-­‐Commercial 
condition 
would 
not 
cause 
any 
problems 
for 
ARIADNE 
with 
regard 
to 
combining 
data, 
but 
it 
may 
have 
wider 
implications, 
as 
what 
constitutes 
commercial 
use 
is 
ambiguous. 
Depending 
on 
interpretation, 
the 
NC 
condition 
may 
or
ARIADNE 
D3.3 
(Public) 
may 
not 
prevent 
data 
from 
being 
used 
in 
works 
for 
which 
an 
author 
is 
paid 
(such 
as 
textbooks), 
in 
works 
that 
are 
sold 
(such 
as 
journal 
articles). 
36 
Several 
partners 
confirmed 
their 
support 
for 
the 
principle 
of 
open 
access 
to 
research 
data 
in 
the 
partner 
survey. 
However, 
the 
use 
of 
the 
NC 
condition 
(or 
limitation 
of 
access 
to 
education, 
research 
or 
public 
uses 
only) 
means 
that 
many 
of 
the 
licence 
agreements 
in 
place 
do 
not 
fully 
conform 
to 
the 
definition 
of 
open 
data 
given 
by 
OpenAIRE 
or 
the 
Open 
Definition 
[6] 
[7]: 
“a 
piece 
of 
data 
or 
content 
is 
open 
if 
anyone 
is 
free 
to 
use, 
reuse, 
and 
redistribute 
it 
— 
subject 
only, 
at 
most, 
to 
the 
requirement 
to 
attribute 
and/or 
share-­‐alike”. 
The 
reasons 
for 
using 
the 
non-­‐commercial 
licence 
clause 
are 
not 
entirely 
clear. 
It 
may 
be 
that 
the 
content 
has 
potential 
commercial 
value 
and 
is 
being 
offered 
under 
a 
multiple 
licencing 
regime 
(this 
strategy 
was 
adopted 
for 
the 
Digital 
Michelangelo 
project). 
Such 
a 
strategy 
allows 
data 
to 
be 
distributed 
under 
both 
a 
copyleft 
licence 
and 
under 
an 
alternate 
licence 
on 
payment 
of 
a 
fee 
for 
commercial 
uses 
[22]. 
Finally, 
the 
partner 
datasets 
survey 
showed 
that 
various 
different 
versions 
of 
CC 
licences 
are 
currently 
being 
used. 
It 
would 
be 
useful 
to 
find 
out 
whether 
it 
is 
possible 
(and 
useful) 
to 
port 
existing 
licences 
to 
the 
newly 
released 
version 
4.0, 
which 
is 
said 
to 
be 
more 
user-­‐friendly. 
The 
CC 
version 
4.0 
suite 
should 
be 
used 
for 
licensing 
of 
databases, 
as 
this 
is 
the 
only 
version 
which 
explicitly 
covers 
sui 
generis 
database 
rights 
[25]. 
Research 
by 
the 
OpenAIRE 
project 
also 
endorses 
the 
use 
of 
CC 
4.0 
licences 
for 
scientific 
datasets 
for 
the 
same 
reason 
[28].
ARIADNE 
D3.3 
(Public) 
8 Recommendations 
The 
surveys 
and 
desk-­‐top 
research 
carried 
out 
have 
identified 
various 
elements, 
which 
ARIADNE 
is 
recommended 
to 
include 
in 
its 
data 
sharing 
policy 
framework: 
1. 
37 
A 
common 
method 
of 
data 
citation 
should 
be 
established 
for 
adoption 
by 
partners 
and 
promotion 
by 
ARIADNE 
to 
the 
archaeological 
research 
community. 
Academic 
recognition 
is 
an 
important 
motivation 
for 
encouraging 
researchers 
to 
share 
access 
to 
their 
datasets. 
2. 
Allocation 
of 
DOIs 
or 
the 
equivalent 
to 
datasets 
ingested 
to 
the 
ARIADNE 
infrastructure 
should 
be 
investigated. 
The 
system 
used 
should 
be 
capable 
of 
identifying 
sub-­‐sets 
within 
collections. 
Persistent 
identification 
of 
datasets 
is 
important 
in 
underpinning 
data 
sharing 
and 
data 
citation. 
3. 
The 
Creative 
Commons 
licence 
suite 
(version 
4.0 
is 
preferred) 
should 
be 
used 
for 
content 
(databases, 
document 
archives, 
images, 
3D 
models, 
etc.) 
provided 
to 
ARIADNE 
by 
content 
partners 
under 
licence 
permissions 
agreed 
with 
the 
content 
owner. 
CC 
BY 
is 
recommended 
for 
open 
access. 
CC 
BY 
SA 
or 
CC 
BY 
SA 
NC 
licences 
may 
also 
be 
applicable. 
4. 
It 
is 
recommended 
that 
together 
with 
the 
content 
itself, 
partners 
be 
requested 
to 
provide: 
• A 
collection 
description 
(of 
the 
whole 
collection 
and 
sub-­‐sets 
within 
the 
collection) 
published 
under 
a 
CC 
BY 
licence 
for 
each 
dataset 
ingested 
into 
the 
ARIADNE 
infrastructure. 
Collection 
description 
is 
a 
useful 
way 
of 
capturing 
the 
provenance 
and 
contextual 
information 
about 
data 
collections, 
and 
can 
be 
used 
to 
underpin 
data 
citation. 
• Item 
level 
metadata 
records 
should 
be 
published 
under 
a 
CC0 
licence 
– 
to 
enable 
integration 
of 
multiple 
datasets 
within 
the 
metadata 
repository, 
support 
resource 
discovery 
and 
enable 
Linked 
Open 
Data. 
As 
ARIADNE 
will 
be 
ingesting 
multiple 
datasets 
from 
different 
content 
providers 
under 
differing 
existing 
licence 
conditions, 
it 
is 
recommended 
that 
ARIADNE 
follows 
the 
example 
of 
Europeana, 
and 
defines 
a 
metadata 
element 
set 
that 
can 
be 
published 
under 
an 
open 
licence 
(CC0 
is 
the 
most 
open, 
CC 
BY 
if 
public 
domain 
licensing 
cannot 
be 
agreed 
upon).

  • 5. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 1 Executive summary The ARIADNE network developed out of the need to develop infrastructures for the management and integration of archaeological data at a European level. The network brings together existing archaeological research datasets with the aim of making them more accessible to researchers, and to build a better understanding of how this data might be brought together to create new insight and understanding within archaeology. To achieve this ARIADNE needs to consider the data access and sharing policies relevant to archaeological research datasets. This report provides an introduction to ARIADNE, and the methodology used to collect information and inform its findings. Following on from the introduction in Section 2, and description of the methodology used in Section 3, the context of the move towards open access for research publications and datasets is considered in Section 4, within which the 2003 Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities was an important milestone. Open Access publications have changed the subscription model providing researchers, students, teachers and members of the public with free access to the latest research. The development of licences, such as those prepared by Creative Commons and the Open Data Commons, is helping data creators share their results in a way that makes conditions for use and re-­‐use clear to the public. Technical developments are both facilitating data sharing and enabling data citation, which is important in allowing academic recognition for these new forms of publication. Section 5 is a situational analysis based on a consultation of ARIADNE partners to understand thinking amongst the archaeological research community on data sharing. Research data in archaeology is defined, and the circumstances in which access to archaeological data needs to be limited are explored. These include, amongst others, the sensitivity of some sites to treasure hunters, national legislation, commercial value, active research projects and complications over the management of rights in legacy datasets. The licensing of data for re-­‐use, open licensing of resource discovery metadata and ways of enhancing data awareness and the culture of data sharing are discussed. Section 6 considers the results of a survey of the sharing policies in place for the datasets ARIADNE partners plan to provide for integration within the research infrastructure. The survey revealed that almost 90% of the datasets are accessible online, with 50% openly available to public users without registration. Over half the datasets are made available under Creative Commons, or other forms of open licences. 5
  • 6. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) Section 7 discusses the issues identified in the report. Consultation with partners revealed that access and sharing policies are still evolving. The aim of this report is to help establish best practices in the management of rights and data access amongst partners and the wider community. This means considering the whole data sharing chain, from the archaeological researcher depositing their data with an archive, to its integration in the ARIADNE infrastructure, and its subsequent availability to the research community. The licence framework discussion covers both data deposits and access policies, and both content and resource description (discovery) metadata. Our survey confirmed that Creative Commons licences are being widely adopted, although there are differences in the conditions specified. The potential impact of the main licence conditions (Attribution, Share Alike, No Derivatives and Non-­‐Commercial) on data sharing in ARIADNE are considered. Finally, Section 8 recommends that ARIADNE include in its data sharing policy framework: • A common method of data citation for adoption by partners, as the means of ensuring 6 academic recognition is important in motivating researchers to share their datasets; • Allocation of DOIs (or the equivalent) for datasets ingested to the ARIADNE infrastructure; persistent identification underpins data sharing and data citation; • The use of the Creative Commons licence suite (version 4.0 is preferred) for content provided to ARIADNE; CC BY is recommended for open access; • A collection description be provided with each collection provided to ARIADNE and licensed under a CC BY licence; • Item level metadata records be published under a CC0 (public domain) licence to enable integration of multiple datasets, to support resource discovery and enable linked open data.
  • 7. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 2 Introduction The amount of data being produced by archaeological research projects has increased exponentially over the last ten years. Archaeologists are pushing the boundaries of available computing resources in the course of their work, generating significant amounts of primary research data. The ARIADNE network developed out of a need to develop infrastructures for the management and integration of archaeological data at a European level. With funding from the European Commission’s Seventh Framework Infrastructures programme, ARIADNE brings together existing archaeological research datasets and infrastructures with the aim of making them more accessible to researchers, and to build a better understanding of how this data might be brought together to create new insight and understanding within archaeology. There is now a large availability of archaeological digital datasets that, together, span different periods, domains and regions, and more are continuously created as a result of the increasing use of IT. These are the accumulated outcome of the research of individuals, teams and institutions. Traditional approaches to research protect the intellectual property rights of individual researchers. Sometimes this protection extends beyond a reasonable term, for example in the case of excavations unpublished for decades, and primary data still under study by the archaeologist. By contrast, sharing data was perceived as interesting and useful by the majority of respondents to a survey completed by the ADS in 2007 [1]: which included comments like ‘having such data available will assist any longer-­‐term monitoring projects or even cast new light on a previously recorded subject’. ARIADNE aims to bring together and integrate the existing archaeological research data infrastructures, so that researchers can use the various distributed datasets. It is developing tools and services to provide access and common interfaces to data repositories, and will support the integration of datasets to enable access by the community of archaeological researchers. To achieve this, ARIADNE needs to consider the data access and sharing policies relevant to archaeological research datasets. This report begins by considering the broad context of the move towards open access for research publications and data, next the situation in relation to providing access to archaeological datasets is explored, and last, but by no means least, the sharing policies in place for the datasets that ARIADNE partners plan to provide for integration to the research infrastructure are examined. 7
  • 8. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) The principle purpose of this report is to define policies for data access via the ARIADNE infrastructure that take into account the requirements defined by the owners of IPR on the content and reflect EU strategic policies of Open Access to Research Data [2] [3]. “The best research infrastructures support researcher collaboration in virtual research communities where knowledge sharing between the best brains is combined with open access to research results and state-­‐of-­‐the-­‐art computing systems to support the efficiency and creativity of research in Europe.” Neelie Kroes, Vice President of the European Commission talking about research infrastructures and the potential of e-­‐Science in today’s society in an interview1. Kroes went on to say “Open research data could help combine and share the works of different research groups, thereby creating new collaborations and tackling new issues for solving common 8 challenges.” 3 Methodology A key element to the approach in gathering data for this report has been to understand the requirements of the ARIADNE partners. A questionnaire was sent to all ARIADNE content providing partners to collect information about the datasets they plan to provide for integration with the research infrastructure. The results of the survey were used to inform both this deliverable on data sharing policies, and also Deliverable 3.2, which describes the metadata standards and thesauri in use by the consortium [4]. The survey revealed the heterogeneous nature of the datasets being made available for integration, as several partners hold data collections that include deposits by many different archaeologists working within their countries, and beyond. It also provided useful information about the strategies in place for managing copyright and licensing access to both content and metadata amongst these collections. Following the initial analysis of the results of the survey of datasets, a second survey was carried out to gather partners’ opinions on questions relating to providing open access to research datasets. This survey was open to all partners, including those who do not currently plan to provide datasets to the infrastructure. It invited partners to define what they mean by research data and to discuss when openness needs to be limited and why, how the issue of data re-­‐use should be addressed and how to enhance the culture of data sharing. The results provide valuable information about the context of archaeological research. 1 E-­‐Data & Research, Newsletter on data and research in the Social Sciences and Humanities, Special Issue 2014

  • 10. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 4 Sharing knowledge: Open Data Technology is changing the way research is carried out, and the way that its results are published. It is creating new possibilities for sharing research data, and this brings with it a requirement for new thinking on data access policies. In this section we consider what open data means within the context of ARIADNE. The 2003 Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities is one of the milestones of the open access movement, and sets out steps to support the transition to open access publication on the Internet for the producers of scientific knowledge. OpenAIRE (the Open Access Infrastructure for Research in Europe) defines Open Access as “the immediate, online, 10 free availability of research outputs without restrictions on use commonly imposed by publisher copyright agreements. Open Access includes the outputs that scholars normally give away for free for publication; it includes peer-­‐reviewed journal articles, conference papers and datasets of various kinds” [6]. OpenAIRE suggests that the benefits include: • improvements in access as the basis for teaching, research and valorization for civil society; • increased visibility and higher citation rates for researchers; • free access to content worldwide. The Open Definition [7) sums up the meaning of open data as “a piece of data or content is open if anyone is free to use, reuse, and redistribute it — subject only, at most, to the requirement to attribute and/or share-­‐alike". Openness in this, and other definitions, means data is made available under licence conditions that permit re-­‐use for free (or at no more than reasonable reproduction costs) and preferably via the Internet. 4.1 Open Access Publications Open Access Publications break the traditional subscription model of academic publishing. In the print publication world, the publisher owned the rights to articles in their journals and charged readers for access. In the Open Access world of digital publication, by shifting publishing costs to the author/funding bodies and by using open licences, readers are able to obtain content at no cost. The benefits of this approach include: • Researchers can read the findings of others without restriction • Opening up public access to the results of publicly funded research
  • 11. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 11 • Students and teachers have access to the latest research findings from across the world It is worth noting that the Open Access publishing model covers a range of components including reader rights, re-­‐use rights, copyright, author posting rights, automatic posting and machine readability. Publishers and funding bodies have differing policies on these components that affect the degree of openness of individual articles or whole journals [8]. 4.2 Open licences Open licences are those which permit re-­‐use of data for free, and in principle this definition could include any royalty-­‐free copyright licence. However such licences might not conform to all of the principles set out in the Open Definition, which identifies a series of conformant licences2 set out in the table below.

Berners-­‐Lee defined four expectations of Linked Data (to use URIs as names for things, to use HTTP URIs so that people can look up those names, provide useful information when someone looks up a URI, and include links to other URIs so that people can discover more things) and then proposed a star scheme to rate the openness of Linked Open Data. 5StarData.info provides examples for each step on the star scheme and discusses the costs and benefits 14 [10]. Star Principle Comments ★ Make your stuff available on the Web (whatever format) under an open licence. The content is accessible on the Web under an open licence published in a document such as a PDF. Other than by writing a custom scraper, it's hard to get the data out of the document. ★★ Make it available as structured data (e.g., Excel instead of image scan of a table) The data is accessible on the Web in a structured way published in a document such as an Excel spreadsheet. To get the data out of the document you depend on proprietary software. ★★★ As above plus use non-­‐ proprietary formats (e.g., CSV instead of Excel) The data is accessible on the Web in a structured way and is published in formats that mean everyone can use the data easily. On the other hand, it's still data on the Web and not data in the Web4. ★★★★ All the above, use open standards from W3C (RDF and SPARQL) and URIs to denote things, so that people can point at your stuff Now data is in the Web. The data items have a URI that means they can be shared on the Web. A native way to represent the data is using RDF, however other formats such as Atom can be converted/mapped, if required. ★★★ ★★ All the above plus link your data to other data to provide context Now the data is published in the Web and is linked to other data, which means that both the consumer and the publisher can benefit from the network effect.

  • 15. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) At the International Linked Open Data in Libraries Archives and Museums summit, the various open licences were considered in the context of publishing content metadata as Linked Open Data. The summit came up with a four-­‐star classification scheme that arranges the open licences in order of their openness and usefulness in this context [11]. 15 Star Licences Comment ★ Attribution Share-­‐Alike Licence (CC-­‐BY-­‐SA/ODC-­‐ODbL) The data is open but the Share-­‐Alike licence limits the potential to combine datasets – as each must conform to the exactly the same Share-­‐Alike licence. In Europe-­‐wide research networks the Share-­‐Alike licence reduces the re-­‐use potential of a dataset (as there are several versions of the CC and ODC share-­‐alike licences). ★★ Attribution Licence (CC-­‐BY / ODC-­‐BY) with a form of attribution not including linkbacks The metadata is open and can be used provided the source is attributed. The data provider specifies the means of attribution, e.g. by specifying use of a ‘creator/source’ element in the metadata or a citation method (e.g. a scholarly citation). The disadvantage of this method for LOD is that users must discover the required mechanism for attribution and how to comply with it. Where different methods are applied for different datasets large-­‐scale open data integration (e.g. mash-­‐ups) become very difficult. ★★★ Attribution Licence (CC-­‐BY / ODC-­‐BY) when the licensor includes linkbacks to meet the attribution requirement. The metadata is open and can be used provided the source is attributed. The user of the data fulfills the condition for attribution by including a web-­‐link back to the source (see for example the method proposed for 5* Linked Open Data in table 3 above). ★★★★ Public Domain (CC0 / ODC PDDL / Public Domain Mark) Metadata is fully open. It requires the least action by users to re-­‐use the data, to link it or integrate the data with other data. It supports the creation of new services and encourages innovation. It maximizes public investment.
  • 16. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 4.4 Attribution of research data Satisfying the requirement of a CC-­‐BY or ODC-­‐BY licence for attribution of research datasets requires a system for data citation. This can help: 16 • the reuse and verification of data • the impact of data to be tracked • to recognise and reward data producers The Archaeology Data Service (ADS), in line with recommendations from the Digital Curation Centre, has proposed that such a system must be able to uniquely identify the dataset, provide the reader with information needed to access the dataset, a means of access online, and be usable by both humans and software tools [12] [13]. The elements recommended by DCC and ADS for a data citation include: • Author, Publication Year, Title, Edition, Version, Feature name and URI, Resource Type, Publisher, Unique numeric footprint (UNF), Identifier and location DataCite is a not-­‐for-­‐profit organisation formed with the aim of promoting the citation of research data to increase its acceptance as a legitimate contribution to the scholarly record and supporting data archiving [14]. DataCite has proposed a similar (but simplified) set of elements for a data citation: • Creator, Publication Year, Title, Version, Resource Type, Publisher, Identifier There are various systems for establishing persistent identifiers (e.g Handles, Archival Resource Keys (ARKs) and Persistent URLs (PURLs)) that can all be resolved to an Internet location. The Digital Object Identifier (DOI) scheme is recommended by both ADS and DataCite for use with research datasets [15].
  • 17. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 5 Situational analysis The European Commission held a public consultation on open research data in July 2013. Five questions were posed to stakeholders to structure the debate, and the results of the consultation were subsequently published online [3]. Five similar questions were posed to partners in the ARIADNE consortium to gather their opinions and to understand the thinking of the archaeological research community on data sharing. 5.1 How do we define research data in archaeology? Research data can be defined as any data captured by research activities or used for research. Data of interest for archaeological research5 includes data sets produced by archaeological researchers, research institutions, heritage agencies and as a result of contract archaeology. A survey of partners noted that archaeological researchers also use data captured for other purposes including airborne and satellite remote sensing data (captured for commercial mapmaking and other reasons), and digital 3D models produced for museum exhibitions or tourism. There are various aspects to take into account in the definition of research data, including the conditions of data acquisition, how the data are used, and the questions posed the data has to answer. In the context of archaeology, data may relate to remains of human activity that have been destroyed since the data were captured. Research data must be identified and described to capture these aspects. As a research infrastructure, ARIADNE’s focus is on the datasets deposited in repositories. This 17 5 “Research data in archaeology are the outcome of particular procedures of definition, data constitution, observation, capture and representation, as well as perceptual and cognitive processes of recognition, identification and categorization. They include all information objects that capture aspects of the domain of archaeology (the material traces of human activity) and that are, or may be, used to construct archaeological knowledge. They include analogue representations of archaeological sites, artefacts, ecofacts and traces of past human activity (such as photographs, drawings, descriptions and documentation) as well as data records. There are ‘objective’ data such as measurements, geo-­‐location and identification of material, and more ‘subjective’ data such as identifications of type, cultural provenance, dating and attribution. Archaeological data such as the above are produced as part of active research projects, i.e. there are active research groups that are working towards studying and publishing the results of their research, in which description of data is an important activity. However there are cases where data are the outcome of archaeological projects that happened many decades ago and still remain unpublished”.
  • 18. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 18 may include: • Data produced by research activity in interim and final formats, which are being made available for reuse; this includes: o data produced as the result of particular procedures (e.g. measurement data, etc.) o data produced as a result of perceptual and cognitive processes (e.g. identification of types or categorization, etc.) o information objects that capture traces of human activity (e.g. photographs, drawings, etc.) o raw and processed data • Metadata provided by researchers to describe their datasets. In practice, this metadata tends to include “content” (information about the cultural object represented by a digital resource e.g. the date, the style/period, the historical geography, find spot) and “context” (information about the research questions and general conditions of data acquisition). Metadata may be incorporated into data files (e.g. a ground penetrating radar scan data includes data capture parameters). For these reasons most partners include metadata in their definition of research data; • metadata provided to describe collections and their content; • preliminary datasets produced as a result of research activity (e.g. drafts) deposited for archiving sometimes under restrictive conditions that prohibit re-­‐use; • working archives of individual archaeologists (e.g. field diaries or personal notes) deposited for archiving, sometimes under restrictive conditions that prohibit re-­‐use. • project management data (e.g. email archives, management documents) deposited for archiving, sometimes under restrictive conditions that prohibit re-­‐use. ARIADNE is a Europe-­‐wide initiative, and it is important to bear in mind that the definition of archaeological data, and what constitutes research activity, differs between countries. 5.2 How and when does openness need to be limited? 5.2.1 Active research projects During current research projects, whilst teams of researchers are actively engaged in collecting, recording and analysing information, openness needs to be limited to allow time for publication before the data is made available to everyone else.
  • 19. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) In general, the right and obligation of publication of archaeological excavations lies with the excavator. Some countries (such as Greece) have acted to address delays in publication by setting a maximum number of years by which the work should be published by the excavator -­‐ after this time the works can go to the public domain for study and publication. In many countries across Europe, museums and custodial institutions have 19 sui generis rights of reproduction and publication over cultural heritage objects in their collections. In some cases this right is limited to a period of years after the object comes to light for the first time. Although full access to ‘active research’ data is generally restricted, a level of information access may be provided to allow other researchers to know who is working on a particular site, excavation, assemblage or archaeological research problem. Collection level descriptions may be available to provide information about the kind of content included in a data archive, while access to the full content is restricted. When depositing data in a Data Archive (such as the Swedish National Data Service, KNAW-­‐ DANS in the Netherlands or the Archaeology Data Service in the UK) researchers decide on what access level the data shall have. This can include restrictions on access, whilst projects are still active. Researchers may limit access for a period of time and then make the data available for use by students and researchers from academic institutions, etc. In some cases, researchers may restrict access to certain data such as personal information, or request it be removed or merged, and in that way remove any restrictions over the rest of their dataset (see 4.2.7 below). A contract between the depositor (researcher/research team) and the archive/repository regulates the openness for data deposits. In most cases, data is deposited with its provenance (i.e. the field project, excavator or research team are identified) and licensed for use with the proviso that the researchers who produced the dataset are attributed. 5.2.2 Past research projects In principle it should be possible to make data created by older archaeological research projects available for research, education and enjoyment. In practice, access may be limited owing to the fact that in the past many creators reserved their rights by using “all rights reserved” as the default copyright statement. In more recent times, creators/providers of content have begun to take steps to express which uses of the content are permitted by using copyright licences, such as the ones developed by Creative Commons and the Open Knowledge Foundation [16] [17] (see also Appendix 1). However, the use of “all rights reserved” as the expression of copyright means the creators of many datasets from past research projects need to be contacted to obtain permission to use the data. This limits access.
  • 20. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 20 5.2.3 Database rights There is a specific European Union law on database rights (Directive No. 96/9/EC, 11 March 1996), which is implemented in the national law of Member States. This law was introduced to recognize the substantial investment made in compiling databases, and to prevent unauthorized copying or re-­‐use of their content. Database rights are established automatically and cover both substantial extraction and copying of the database, and also piecemeal copying of data and subsequent reassembly. In principle, non-­‐substantial or “fair use” is possible, but any substantial copying of relevant data requires obtaining permission and agreeing terms of use with the database owner. In addition to the database rights, the arrangement, selection and presentation of the data may also be protected by copyright [18] [19] [20]. 5.2.4 Archaeological site location data Certain types of archaeological sites (such as shipwrecks and places where there have been finds of gold, silver and other valuable objects) are vulnerable to treasure hunters. Cemeteries and sites that contain human remains are sensitive for various reasons, for example there may be living relatives of people buried in long dis-­‐used churchyards that are the subject of a modern excavation. Archaeological sites and finds on military installations may also be sensitive. Legislation varies between EU member states with some countries limiting access to information about the locations of such sites for protection reasons. 5.2.5 Commercial value Some research institutions aim to exploit research results for commercial purposes. In such institutions, employees’ contracts may include clauses stating that research results (e.g. data) are the property of the institution. Some publicly funded research institutions and individual projects may also operate on the basis that research results (e.g. data) are to be made available not only for further research but also for commercial exploitation. For example, the European Commission Communication: ‘Towards better access to scientific information: Boosting the benefits of public investments in
  • 21. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) research’6 states the importance of making research results available rapidly to benefit European business and industry. The Digital Michelangelo Project (1997-­‐20047) was pioneering both in 3D digitization of masterpieces of the Italian Renaissance, and in the work done by Stanford University and the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage (MIBAC), to define the IPR over the data produced, and the rights for dissemination and commercial exploitation. The 3D models produced by the project are available for re-­‐use under licence by researchers and scholars on application to Stanford University. Permission for commercial use of the models can be obtained by applying to the Italian government. 21 5.2.6 Privacy and data protection Privacy and the protection of personal data is an important issue. There are cases where archaeological research datasets include information that directly or indirectly points towards a specific individual; access to which needs to be restricted under data protection legislation. 5.2.1 National legislation EU member states have differing national legislation regarding cultural property. In some countries there is legislation that makes all material cultural heritage of a certain age the property of the state. For example, in Greece everything dating to before 1830 and listed monuments (or artefacts) of all dates are the property of the state. Italian law (law n.42 of 22/01/2004) states: Art. 107 “The Ministry [of Culture], the regions and the other public bodies may allow the reproduction of cultural heritage they have in custody... [at a fee]” Art. 108 “The reproduction fee is fixed by the authority that is the custodian of the object [...]”. No fee is due for reproductions made for personal use, study reasons or valorization (by a public body) whether by private individuals or organizations (including commercial companies). Under this legislation, taking photos of cultural heritage objects (including museum collections) should be allowed on request for the specified uses. Any works that are produced should be licenced under a CC-­‐BY-­‐NC-­‐SA framework, permitting future re-­‐use under like conditions and limiting commercial re-­‐use. French legislation distinguishes the dissemination of public data, data produced through a 6http://ec.europa.eu/research/science-­‐society/document_library/pdf_06/era-­‐communication-­‐towards-­‐better-­‐ access-­‐to-­‐scientific-­‐information_en.pdf 7 https://graphics.stanford.edu/projects/mich/
  • 22. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) public service mission, from other data. Public data are freely re-­‐usable in accordance with the intellectual property (law 17/07/1978). Under the policy of public data's openness on line, the state has created an open and free licence, the open licence Etalab8. It is compatible with any other open licence requiring the minimum to mention paternity. Public officials assign their rights of reproduction and representation to their administration, cannot object to the disclosure and modification of their work under their public service missions, and maintain restricted moral rights. This is the case of Inrap archaeologists. Researchers and university’s teachers are an exception to this rule: although public officials they maintain all their rights. It is worth noting there are circumstances under which legislation may require researchers to release data, for example requests under 22 Freedom of Information legislation and Environmental Information Regulations. The EU Directive on the re-­‐use of public sector information (PSI directive 20039 10) has recently been amended to bring public sector libraries (including university libraries), museums and archives within its scope. The Directive looks at the re-­‐use of material already public saying it should be available for both commercial and non-­‐commercial uses. Charges may apply but the Directive states these should be limited to the “marginal costs of reproduction, provision and dissemination” with exceptions to this rule and on how the costs should be calculated. For archaeological documents held by libraries, museums and archives, these should first be available for re-­‐use. The directive allows for exclusive agreements in the case of digitization projects by cultural institutions, which can limit re-­‐use for a period of years after the project has been completed [21]. 8 http://www.etalab.gouv.fr/ 9Directive 2013/37/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 amending Directive 2003/98/EC on the re-­‐use of public sector information.

  • 23. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 23 5.3 How should the issue of data re-­‐use be addressed? 5.3.1 Licensing While institutions and individuals are subject to the legislative and ethical reasons for limited access to data described above (section 4.2), there is a trend towards the planned release of research data under licence [22]. Some research funders and journals now require that data is deposited in repositories where it can be made available for other researchers to build on. Releasing data is beginning to be seen as being in researcher’s interests: • Preparing data for release helps ensure that a clear record of how conclusions were reached is preserved • A culture of openness enables interdisciplinary research and learning from mistakes as well as successes, and • Has the potential to increase the impact of research academically, economically and socially. Releasing data under licence protects copyright whilst clarifying the permitted uses. It is important to note that only the rights holder (or someone with permission to act on their behalf) can grant a licence; this means the intellectual property rights (IPR) need to be established before any licensing can take place. Some data centres have prepared licences that depositors are asked to sign as a condition of deposit, for example both the ADS and KNAW-­‐DANS deposit licences [23] [24]. Deposit licences set out the conditions under which the data centres provide access to the data for end-­‐users. Content licences, which may be either bespoke licences prepared for data centres or standard licences, are attached to content items to make the terms and conditions of access and use clear to end-­‐users. The Creative Commons (CC) licensing system is widely used because it offers a series of easy to use, standardised and automated licences that can be attached to content. There are four core stipulations (Attribution (By), Non-­‐Commercial (NC), No-­‐Derivatives (ND) and Share Alike (SA)) that can be included or excluded to produce seven basic licences: • The three open licences described in section 3 above: CC0, CC-­‐BY and CC-­‐BY-­‐SA. • Four more restrictive licences: o CC-­‐BY-­‐ND – Attribution No Derivatives -­‐ allows for redistribution, commercial and non-­‐commercial, as long as the content is not changed and the creator is credited.
  • 24. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 24 o CC-­‐BY-­‐NC – Attribution Non Commercial -­‐ allows others to remix, tweak, and build upon content, as long as the creator of the original content is credited and the new content is not commercial. o CC-­‐BY-­‐NC-­‐SA – Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike -­‐ allows others to remix, tweak, and build upon content non-­‐commercially, as long as the creator of the original content is credited and the new content is licenced under the identical terms. o CC-­‐BY-­‐NC-­‐ ND – Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives -­‐ This licence is the most restrictive of the CC licences. It allows others to download content and share it with others as long as the content is unchanged, the creator of the content is credited you and there is no commercial use. Taking into account the various conditions of each licence, the licensor grants the user a worldwide, non-­‐exclusive, perpetual (for the duration of the applicable right) licence to reproduce, display, perform, communicate and distribute copies of the work. The rights apply to all media and formats known now or subsequently developed (including any modifications technically necessary to exercise the rights in other media formats) [18]. In principle, all rights not expressly granted by the licensor are reserved. The release of Version 4.0 of Creative Common’s core licence suite on 25 November 2013 provides both a more global licence framework (with official translations and licences that are ready to use without porting) and one that addresses applicable sui generis database rights explicitly. The new version also includes a slight change to reflect accepted practices permitting licensees to satisfy attribution requirements, where specified, with a link to a page for information [25]. 5.3.2 Data citation One of the problems with promoting access and re-­‐use of data, is that until recently researchers have not been credited for publishing datasets in the same way as when they publish a research paper. There has been a move to data citation with mechanisms being put in place to allow authors to link journal publications to the underlying datasets [22]. Dataset citations should: • uniquely identify the object cited, • be able to identify subsets of the data as well as the whole dataset, • provide the reader with enough information to access the dataset, • be readable by humans and also by software tools, so that services can be put in place to use the citations in metrics to support the academic reward system
  • 25. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) The elements of a dataset citation are still under debate (see section 3.4 above) but should include details of the creator of the dataset (the author), the date of publication, title, resource type, publisher, identifier and its location. 5.3.3 Should ARIADNE adopt Creative Commons licences for resource discovery 25 metadata? We asked partners if ARIADNE decided to adopt CC licences for resource discovery metadata, would this would pose any issues for their organization? INRAP – “We don’t use Creative commons License for the moment but it would not pose any issues for us, provided there is no commercial use (CC-­‐NC). As a public institution of research, this is one of the most important criteria”. SND – “has not adopted the use of CC, but we are looking into it and will give researchers the possibility to put a CC license on their material (data). There are no problems for SND if ARIADNE adopts a CC license on the metadata since most of the metadata at SND is created at/by SND. However some of the abstracts and similar “running text” are taken from (and referred to) reports and similar”. AIAC – “We have already adopted a Creative Commons Sharealike ((CC BY-­‐SA) license for the Fasti Online, and a Non-­‐Commercial Sharealike licence (CC BY-­‐NC-­‐SA)) for the review FOLD&R.” Other respondents gave their personal opinions, with one individual replying, “I think that all data produced with public money should be public. They were paid with my taxes and I want to own them. CC licensing is a good way to protect them for the community…That said, there is still some way to go before laws, regulations and habits are changed”…“I would also expect that data opening becomes a condition for any public research grant, for the same principle stated above, and since archaeological research requires an excavation permit, this also could be a way to enforce an open, although IPR respectful, licensing scheme, for example CC-­‐BY-­‐NC-­‐SA ...” Another respondent said “For research data for which rights belong to the archaeological archives/organizations in ARIADNE, it would be great if resource discovery metadata became available according to a Creative Commons License, under the constraints/qualifications noted above. An attribution-­‐derivatives-­‐non-­‐commercial license would sit well with me, and I imagine would resonate well with primary creators/custodians of such data.”
  • 26. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) A third respondent commented, “I think that resource discovery metadata does not pose much of a problem however open the license is. Metadata however might include rich descriptive information created with much effort by researchers, archivists, curators or librarians. In such cases Public Domain (CC0 / ODC PDDL / Public Domain Mark) might not seem appropriate for some providers (CC-­‐BY / ODC-­‐BY probably)”. This comment prompted another to remark “are we sure that we want CC-­‐BY instead of CC0 for metadata? I mean, metadata are used for 'processing', making queries etc. That means that when you produce any kind of result based on such metadata you should be legally obliged to cite all the authors of the metadata involved in the queries...Personally I would prefer the CC0 approach of Europeana” (See [26] for more information on the Europeana approach). 5.4 How should we enhance data awareness and the culture of sharing? “Data awareness” can be taken to mean awareness amongst researchers that it is important to share data in an open and trustworthy manner. The “culture of sharing” has varied according to the type of research and the data produced. There are quite well established practices for sharing excavation results (and data sets), but sharing of other types of data is less well established. The Swedish National Data Service reports that it has noticed a change in data awareness with an increase in numbers of researchers requesting access data. It suggests there are several reasons for this: 26 research funders like the Swedish Research Council are recommending the deposition and sharing of data financed by them; impact from other countries and from other researchers; and also the increased awareness of organizations like SND. INRAP suggested promoting data sharing on a large scale, crossing national boundaries, in a way that encourages synthesis work would help to raise awareness. Outreach by data centres such as ADS, SND and KNAW-­‐DANS delivering seminars, workshops, training and road-­‐shows where they talk about the benefits of sharing data raises awareness and encourages researchers to get in contact about deposition of data. Incentives to encourage researchers to share their datasets include: • Establishing and promoting the practice of data citation (as a means of giving academic credit to the data creator). • The use of persistent identifiers (PIDs) as a means of linking datasets from different sources and making new inquiries into them – and enabling new research.
  • 27. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) • Offering tools to make it easier to share, such as simple metadata applications or to enable institutionally held data to be uploaded easily to a central website for archiving. 27 Providing open access to resource description/discovery metadata as a means for researchers to discover the existence of datasets in repositories and portals is technical mechanism for raising awareness of the data itself.
  • 28. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 6 Survey of ARIADNE datasets A survey was carried out of the datasets, which ARIADNE partners plan to provide for ingestion to the ARIADNE infrastructure. The content and metadata being made available were analysed and the results reported in the initial report on the project registry [27]. The survey also included questions about the rights and access policies in place for the 28 collections being offered for ingestion, the findings of which are analysed in this section. Detailed responses are presented in Appendix 1 below. 6.1 Rights holders The datasets survey revealed that of the 28 collections proposed for ingestion to the ARIADNE infrastructure, 61% include content from many different research teams and have multiple rights owners. The collections with multiple rights include the holdings of data archives such as the ADS, DAI, DANS, Discovery Programme, MiBAC, MNM-­‐NOK etc. 39% of the collections had single rights holders including AIAC’s FOLD&R Journal, INRAP’s collections and the collections of the Austrian Academy of Sciences. 28 Figure 1: Rights holders in ARIADNE datasets
  • 29. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 6.2 Content copyright It is perhaps not surprising that the survey of ARIADNE partners’ datasets revealed there is copyright in 83% of the collections identified for ingestion. Only 8% of collections were described as “open” with one further collection (3% of the total) being made available under copyleft principles. One partner, KNAW-­‐DANS reported that in principle it is possible for researchers to deposit collections with additional restrictions on access or temporary embargos (while research is completed) and these conditions show as affecting 6% of collections in figure 2 below. 29 Figure 2: Rights in ARIADNE datasets Several partners whose collections include data deposited by many different researchers reported that copyright, licensing and conditions for use are agreed with individual content owners at the time of deposit. 6.3 Content Access The access that is currently available to the collections identified in the survey varies. A majority of the collections are available online, with only 3% being offline, and only 5% currently reported as being closed to users (see Figure 3 below). 50% of all the collections are freely available online with a further 39% available online to registered users. One collection (3% of the total) is available online to users after they click-­‐through to accept the licence conditions.
  • 30. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 30 Figure 3: Access to datasets The survey revealed that 42% of the collections identified by partners are made available using standard Creative Commons licences (Figure 4 below). At 22% the most widely used is CC BY NC SA (By Attribution, Non-­‐Commercial, Share-­‐Alike) with CC BY NC ND (By Attribution, Non Commercial, No-­‐Derivatives) being the next most used licence at 14% of collections. 17% of collections are covered by ‘open’ licences with 3% being placed in the Public Domain (CC 0), 3% under CC BY SA, 3% under the French Open licence and 8% reported as being openly licensed. Figure 4: Content licences in use
  • 31. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 47% of the collections identified in the survey are made available to users under terms and conditions that are not defined by standard licences. In general this means that users need to apply to the content holder for permission to use the content for publication or other purposes. Two partners (ADS and KNAW-­‐DANS) have developed their own licences. In the case of KNAW-­‐ DANS, data depositors can choose between the equivalent of a CC BY (By Attribution) licence for open access content, or to restrict access to a certain group and/or certain time (with the possibility of a temporarily embargo for up to two years) (see Appendix 2 below). In the case of ADS, the licence permits the use of data with attribution for research, learning, and teaching, and also for commercial archaeological projects with the provision that the outputs end up in the public domain. Thus the ADS licence is the equivalent of the CC BY NC SA (By Attribution Non-­‐Commercial) licence with some specified commercial uses being permitted – see Appendix 3 below. SND enables depositors to specify differing levels of access for their datasets with some sub-­‐sets of the collection being available on open access and other sub-­‐sets accessible under more restrictive conditions (see Appendix 4 below). It is also worth noting that different versions of CC licences are in use by partners. Version 3.0 is the most commonly used, however version 2.5 is also used. 6.4 Metadata rights As part of the survey ARIADNE partners were asked whether metadata was separately available for their content and if so under what licence conditions. 76% of the collections that were identified have metadata available for the content items. The 24% of the collections that lack separate metadata are mostly databases where the records could be considered as metadata, or used to export metadata records if required. All of the partners were asked if they were able to make the metadata for their content available under a CC0 (Public Domain) licence (see figure 5). Twelve partners replied they were able to make their content metadata available under the CC0 licence representing 60% of the identified collections. Two partners reported they were currently thinking of the CC BY NC SA licence; the Discovery Programme replying that as no separate metadata was available for its databases the content licence was applicable; ZRC SAZU replying it had CC BY NC SA in mind, but was willing to consider CC0 for its metadata if this is important for ARIADNE’s success. Of the three partners who replied they were not 31
  • 32. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 32 Figure 5: Metadata licences able to make their metadata available under the CC0 licence, INRAP is making a subset of its metadata available under the French Open Data platform and suggested this could be linked to. Athena RC reported a complex rights situation in relation to its clay database and thus said that its metadata could not currently be made available under the CC0 licence. NIAM-­‐BAS reported that it needs to determine its strategy and suggested that some elements of its metadata might be made available under a CC0 licence. 6.5 Specific conditions affecting Access Some partners reported specific factors affecting access to their collections in the survey. For example, Athena-­‐RC reported that its clay database contains the results of its analysis of sherds from various excavations. It explained that Athena-­‐RC owns the moral rights to the results of its analysis, but access to information about the sherds themselves requires permission from the archaeologists responsible for excavating them. Clearing the rights to accessing this information will involve contacting all the archaeologists involved to obtain their permission. MNM-­‐NOK reported it holds some sensitive datasets, which include information about the locations of sites vulnerable to looting, and that it restricts access to registered users only for this reason. Some partners are planning to provide databases for ingestion to the ARIADNE infrastructure, which don’t currently have separate metadata. For example, Athena-­‐RC said of its clay database that they have difficulty in distinguishing “between metadata and content”. The Discovery Programme similarly reported that the content three of its databases (WODAN, Mapping Death and the Irish Stone Axe project) could be considered as metadata.
  • 33. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 7 Discussion The principle purpose of developing data sharing policies is to help establish best practices in the management of rights and data access by partners in the ARIADNE infrastructure, and the wider archaeological research community. As content partners are responsible for receiving datasets deposited by archaeological researchers, for managing access to those datasets, and will be providing datasets for ingestion to the ARIADNE infrastructure, it is important to consider the whole supply chain (see Figure 6: Data sharing activity chain). After consulting with partners it is clear that access and sharing policies are evolving. Management of IPR and licensing of content is well established and understood by some partners; others are still working through the process. There are national and institutional variations, and legacy datasets deposited under past frameworks to be taken into consideration. However it is clear there is a common move towards the explicit licensing of content and metadata so that datasets can be made available for research, education and public use. The activity chain involves the management of rights and data sharing policies at different stages. Some of the key points in the chain are: 7.1 Deposit agreements with content providers This represents the point when partners in the ARIADNE infrastructure receive deposits of data from archaeological researchers, whether from within their own organization or from external organizations. This is the moment in time when information about the provenance (research team, project) of the dataset and any underlying rights (objects, sites, data re-­‐use) is collected and agreements reached for access permissions etc. There is no standard framework, although recommendations can be made on best practices and the adoption of standard licences (the CC licence suite). 7.2 Agreements with ARIADNE The point when organizations reach agreements with ARIADNE to share their datasets with the research infrastructure is the moment in time when agreements need to be reached about the licensing of resource description metadata and content (for research, education, public and/or commercial use), permissions for data re-­‐use (making derivatives), and data citation (accreditation) etc. 33
  • 34. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 7.3 Data sharing and access This is the framework under which users access datasets via the ARIADNE infrastructure, and covers policies for data citation, provision of unique persistent identifiers for datasets (and subsets), and licences for resource description metadata and content. 34 Objects and sites provenance, accreditation, assets, IPR Metadata, content, public use, derivatives, commercial use, citation Collection description, DOI and license framework Archaeological researcher Deposit agreement Content partner Access agreement ARIADNE infrastructure Portal and search engine Figure 6: Data sharing activity chain
  • 35. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 7.4 Licence framework The most widely adopted legal framework being used by partners to manage access and sharing of data is the Creative Commons suite of licences, and therefore this is likely to provide the most suitable framework for ARIADNE. The main issues are discussed below. 35 7.4.1 Resource description/Collection description metadata Such metadata is used to provide for the identification (discovery) of collections, sub-­‐collections and/or individual content items within data repositories. Although the partner survey showed this type of metadata is not currently available for all ARIADNE datasets, it could be generated (at least at collection level). The survey revealed there is general consensus amongst partners that open access should be provided to this type of metadata. The main area of difference was whether to follow the Europeana model and adopt the CC0 (public domain) licence or the CC BY licence (to ensure attribution of the content provider). 7.4.2 Content licensing The responsibility for negotiating and agreeing which permissions are to be licensed by archaeological researchers for their content lies with content partners. ARIADNE is able to suggest best practices, such as the use of the Creative Commons licence suite. The main issues to be considered are: • The Attribution condition could be problematic if data are to be combined with data from a large number of other sets due to the administrative burden of crediting each individual contributor in the manner of their choosing [22]. • The Share Alike condition can cause problems, as it requires the licensee to release any derived dataset under the same licence and thus prevents it from being combined with data released under a different licence. This is true even within Creative Commons: a derived dataset cannot contain both CC BY-­‐SA-­‐licensed data and CC BY-­‐NC-­‐SA-­‐licensed data. • The No Derivatives condition may restrict data reuse – it requires that data is used ‘as-­‐ is’, although precisely what this means in practice is a matter of debate [22]. • The Non-­‐Commercial condition would not cause any problems for ARIADNE with regard to combining data, but it may have wider implications, as what constitutes commercial use is ambiguous. Depending on interpretation, the NC condition may or
  • 36. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) may not prevent data from being used in works for which an author is paid (such as textbooks), in works that are sold (such as journal articles). 36 Several partners confirmed their support for the principle of open access to research data in the partner survey. However, the use of the NC condition (or limitation of access to education, research or public uses only) means that many of the licence agreements in place do not fully conform to the definition of open data given by OpenAIRE or the Open Definition [6] [7]: “a piece of data or content is open if anyone is free to use, reuse, and redistribute it — subject only, at most, to the requirement to attribute and/or share-­‐alike”. The reasons for using the non-­‐commercial licence clause are not entirely clear. It may be that the content has potential commercial value and is being offered under a multiple licencing regime (this strategy was adopted for the Digital Michelangelo project). Such a strategy allows data to be distributed under both a copyleft licence and under an alternate licence on payment of a fee for commercial uses [22]. Finally, the partner datasets survey showed that various different versions of CC licences are currently being used. It would be useful to find out whether it is possible (and useful) to port existing licences to the newly released version 4.0, which is said to be more user-­‐friendly. The CC version 4.0 suite should be used for licensing of databases, as this is the only version which explicitly covers sui generis database rights [25]. Research by the OpenAIRE project also endorses the use of CC 4.0 licences for scientific datasets for the same reason [28].
  • 37. ARIADNE D3.3 (Public) 8 Recommendations The surveys and desk-­‐top research carried out have identified various elements, which ARIADNE is recommended to include in its data sharing policy framework: 1. 37 A common method of data citation should be established for adoption by partners and promotion by ARIADNE to the archaeological research community. Academic recognition is an important motivation for encouraging researchers to share access to their datasets. 2. Allocation of DOIs or the equivalent to datasets ingested to the ARIADNE infrastructure should be investigated. The system used should be capable of identifying sub-­‐sets within collections. Persistent identification of datasets is important in underpinning data sharing and data citation. 3. The Creative Commons licence suite (version 4.0 is preferred) should be used for content (databases, document archives, images, 3D models, etc.) provided to ARIADNE by content partners under licence permissions agreed with the content owner. CC BY is recommended for open access. CC BY SA or CC BY SA NC licences may also be applicable. 4. It is recommended that together with the content itself, partners be requested to provide: • A collection description (of the whole collection and sub-­‐sets within the collection) published under a CC BY licence for each dataset ingested into the ARIADNE infrastructure. Collection description is a useful way of capturing the provenance and contextual information about data collections, and can be used to underpin data citation. • Item level metadata records should be published under a CC0 licence – to enable integration of multiple datasets within the metadata repository, support resource discovery and enable Linked Open Data. As ARIADNE will be ingesting multiple datasets from different content providers under differing existing licence conditions, it is recommended that ARIADNE follows the example of Europeana, and defines a metadata element set that can be published under an open licence (CC0 is the most open, CC BY if public domain licensing cannot be agreed upon).
