Haris - Hanken research database

Publish the metadata of your dataset

• It is strongly recommended to use Fairdata Qvain metadata tool to describe and publish the (meta)data. More information, see Publishing (meta)data in line with the FAIR data principles in the LibGuide on Research data management (RDM).

Archive your dataset

• Archive and publish your dataset in a national or international repository when possible. Recommended general repositories include Zenodo, IDA, and Aila.  

Register the dataset in Haris

• The information you have registered in Haris will be displayed on Haris portal under Datasets. You can register:
  • A standalone dataset, or
  • A dataset linked to a publication (create one record for the dataset and one for the publication, and link them under Relations).
• Use the dataset template in Haris to register your data.
  • Under Data availability you can add links and include persistent identifiers (PIDs).
    • Add the DOI, URN, or other PIDs from Qvain or from the repository where the dataset is archived.
    • Note: You cannot upload files directly to Haris. Only metadata and links are registered.
  • Add relations: If applicable, link the dataset to related content types in Haris such as research outputs, projects, and activities. This helps place the dataset in context. Adding relations is optional but recommended.
