Dear Nijwm Basumatary, You have taken a good and very relevant topic. Research data service is a new breed of service offered by the libraries where by the researches or academics are offered with research data and provide them a means to preserve, share and annotate data. Research Data Service acts a repository of research data. It enhances the preservation of research data and its access. It requires systematic planning; a data management plan is required.

Thank you Dr. Shibu Ray.S for your kind advise and support

Dr. Shibu Ray.S could you please clarify me of my queries related to research.

1. Is Institutional Repository (IR) considered as one of the  Research Data Management services (RDM) . I went through one of the articles and got to know that Dspace an Institutional Repository is also considered as one of in-house RDM service. 

2. What comprises RDM service? Is it only the management of the data's throughout its lifespan, publication ?

3. While going through some of the articles I came across some of the Open Source Research Data Management Software’s such as DataStage, Databank etc. What is your opinion towards a software that would best suit the need of a Social Science Research Centre?
