ABSTRACT
In Chapter 9, it is explained that Enhanced Publications are compound digital objects that combine ePrints, research data and metadata. The creation of such scholarly packages should eventually become part of the natural working environment of scientists. Some simple tools should be developed that enable academics to archive their data and the descriptions of these data in a digital repository shortly after their creation. Seringhaus and Gerstein (2007) express a similar need. They argue that new information architecture should be developed which must “ensure that every author is able to archive pre-prints, host supplementary data, and make their findings available in digital format”.
