SILVA ALES, Niliek  and  CRUZ VIGOA, Shirley. Digital preservation of research data in university: key actions. ARCIC [online]. 2021, vol.10, n.25, pp. 97-111.  Epub Apr 01, 2021. ISSN 2411-9970.

Digital preservation constitutes a framework of guidelines, polices, methodologies and actions that are aimed at guaranteeing long-term access to data, information and knowledge, without distinction from the original medium in which they were registered. Its role in research data management presents challenges, as the diversity of material and human resources, as well as systems have to intervene. Hence, this article aims to define key actions for the digital preservation of research data in universities. Theoretically- methodologically related to research data, research data management, curation and digital preservation are examined. The methods used arte the documentary analysis, the analytical- synthetic method and the logical- inductive method. The results point to the need not to separate the data from the collection and processing method. Digital preservation actions are aimed at ensuring that research data is in data repositories, as well as ensuring its structure, storage, availability over time and intellectual training of the people who interact with them.

Keywords : research data; research data management; digital preservation; data curation; universities.
