How to Deposit Data
This section of the web site contains information about
how to deposit data with the History Data Service
The acquisition and accession of data into the History Data Service collection
is managed by the UK Data Archive acquisitions team, who are also responsible
for the acquistion and accession of data for the Economic and Social Data Service
(ESDS). For data depositors depositing data is essentially a two-stage process.
Firstly, depositors complete the UK Data Archive Data submission form. This is then reviewed
by the Acquistions Review Committee (ARC) which meets fortnightly to review
submissions. Secondly, if the data is accepted by ARC then depositors must prepare
materials for formal deposit. This includes completing the data collection deposit
forms, completing and signing a Licence Agreement and sending the data to the
acquisitions section. Further information about how to deposit data is given
in the depositing
data section of the ESDS web site.
