As RSpace 1.46 is now wrapped up and ready for release, here's a summary of the latest new features. This release we've concentrated on some new integrations and extending the API. First off, there's been quite an interest in using…
Over the last few years we’ve been committed to supporting the research data management community by enabling RSpace to send data from your ELN to repositories such Figshare, Dataverse and DSpace. We've also made available as open-source libraries Java SDKs to Figshare…
Here are at ResearchSpace, despite the enticement of the Scottish summer, our developers are working hard on the next RSpace release, due at the end of July. This month we have some significant new features that we hope will open more…
Mass Innovation Labs, an accelerated chemistry and biology commercialization and research space located in Kendall Square, and Research Space, developer of an electronic lab notebook used by top universities, medical schools and life sciences companies around the world, announced today…
It’s been a while since the dev team last blogged, so we thought it about time for an update. In this post, I’ll cover some aspects of the RSpace API which we made available for the first time in 1.41.…
Figshare and Research Space are pleased to announce an integration of the RSpace electronic lab notebook with Figshare. This integration, described in the following brief video, enables researchers to deposit datasets directly from RSpace into Figshare. By enabling capture of…
We are pleased to announce that from February 8 it’s possible to add your ORCID ID to your RSpace profile, and include your ORCID ID with deposits of data into the Figshare and Dataverse repositories. The integration is described in…
Dataverse and Research Space are pleased to announce an integration of the RSpace electronic lab notebook with Dataverse. This integration, described in the following brief video, enables researchers to deposit datasets directly from RSpace to any Dataverse.
By capturing lab data electronically in the RSpace ELN, and providing a simple deposit interface to Dataverse, we hope to make Dataverse more accessible to researchers, to foster a greater number of submissions, and to streamline the process of making datasets publicly available. Further curation can then be performed by data archivists using the full feature set of the Dataverse repository.
The growth in usage of both electronic lab notebooks and data repositories brings with it the need for the two kinds of digital environments to talk to each other. Researchers can now take advantage of RSpace to collect, share and organize research data, and directly deposit datasets of any complexity, including multiple documents in any format that can be structured in folders, and links to attachments, directly into Dataverse. The researcher’s ORCID id can be included as part of the export.
The integration enables researchers to take full advantage of Dataverse’s innovative approach to making datasets accessible and useful. Datasets archived in Dataverse can take advantage of persistent identifiers, automatically generated citations, robust metadata, and summary statistics and analysis for tabular files. Researchers depositing datasets into the Dataverse are offered tools allowing them to self-curate content deposited in the repository, with expanded curation services to be available in the near future.
The RSpace – Dataverse integration will be presented at the Dataverse Community call taking place on December 6 at 12 pm EST.

"I'm imagining a Slack button on each experiment page in the ELN where my students could click to send direct messages to me (or others) with a comment about the experiment It would then show up in my Slack message…
