NIH Request for Information: Metrics to Assess Value of Biomedical Digital Repositories

NIH has issued a Request for Information to gather input about metrics to assess the impact and value of biomedical digital data repositories, including deposition repositories and knowledgebases.  NIH is interested in collecting information about the usage, quality of data, quality of service and other aspects of existing repositories.  Community use of repositories, in addition to individual use, is emphasized.  Responses should include information such as how specific resources are used, and how community use or importance of a resource can be measured.

A full description of the RFI is available at: https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-16-133.html

Responses are due by September 30, 2016.
