Howdy.
We are members of the Texas Data Repository assessment working group.
The Texas Data Repository is now over four years old.
The TDR is a data repository hosted by the Texas Digital Library for
nine different institutions: Baylor, Texas A&M International,
Texas A&M, Texas A&M Galveston, Texas State, Texas Tech, Texas Woman's,
University of Houston, University of Texas Arlington,
and the University of Texas at Austin.
Our poster tracks usage since 2017 of users, elections, data sets,
and downloads, and we are highlighting only three of the eight figures
on our poster.
- As you can see, the number of users is steadily increasing.
We add about 15 new registered users every month, and now have over
850 users.
Of those, almost 300 users have created collections, and almost
and almost 300 have created data sets.
Visit our poster to see which institution has the highest
proportion of users who have created collections and data sets.
- Yes, and the number of collections is also increasing.
So, on average, about 10 new collections are created each month,
and we now have over 550 collections.
So, as expected, the majority of these collections house data
for research projects, researchers, and research groups.
And you can visit our poster to see which institution has the most
collections for teaching.
- On average, about 30 data sets are created every month,
and there are over 1,500 data sets.
It is nice to notice that the majority of the data sets are released after
they are created.
Come visit our poster to see which institution has the largest average
data set.
