Watch this recent TEtrARCHs seminar on Data Reuse and the ADS

We recently advertised a seminar from the Transforming data rE-use in ARCHaeology (TEtrARCHs) project. Delivered by KL Seaton from the University of York, the talk was titled ‘Hiding in plain sight: Understanding data reuse at the Archaeology Data Service’.

KL is a doctoral student at the University of York, whose research focuses on the re-use of archaeological data. This seminar presents the reality of data reuse using the Archaeology Data Service as a case study. Seaton provides quantitative data that suggests archaeological data is regularly used in unexpected ways, and that the value of individual datasets cannot be entirely equal to the number of citations they have. The seminar ultimately calls for a reconsideration of how the way archaeological data is deposited can help to better facilitate reuse by interested parties outside of the heritage sector.

Now you can watch the seminar below:
