The Source to Output Repositories project seeks to address the area of interactions between output repositories of research publications and source repositories of primary research data. Through user surveys the functionality required by researchers in both types of repository will be determined, with the aim of identifying options for increasing the value of using primary data in source repositories as well as at the point where researchers submit to or download papers from output repositories.

This two year project is multidiscipline in scope, embracing seven scientific domains: archaeology, astronomy, biochemistry, biosciences, chemistry, physics and social sciences. With the aid of the survey results, general principles for middleware development to link source and output repositories together will be formulated, and a business analysis will be performed. Consequent to this analysis a pilot demonstrator will be developed in one of the domain areas. A full and extensive evaluation of the project will be carried out in order to inform JISC of the best options for future development in this area.
