Background
re3data.org is a global registry of research data repositories from all academic disciplines. It provides an overview of existing research data repositories in order to help researchers to identify a suitable repository for their data and thus comply with requirements set out in data policies.[1]
The registry was officially launched in May 2013.[2]
Content
In March 2014 the registry lists 634 research data repositories from around the world covering all academic disciplines. 586 of these are described in detail using the re3data.org schema.[3]
The project makes all metadata in the registry available for open use under the Creative Commons deed CC0.[4]

Features
The majority of the listed research data repositories are described in detail by a comprehensive schema, namely the re3data.org Schema for the Description of Research Data Repositories.[5]
Information icons support researchers to identify an adequate repository for the storage and reuse of their data.[2][6]

Inclusion criteria
A repository is indexed when the minimum requirements for inclusion in re3data.org are met: the repository has to be run by a legal entity, such as a sustainable institution (e.g. library, university) and clearly state access conditions to the data and repository as well as the terms of use. Additionally, an English graphical user interface (GUI) plus a focus on research data is needed.[5]
Partners and Cooperation
re3data.org is a joint project of the Berlin School of Library and Information Science, the GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences and the Library of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). The project is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG).[1]
The project cooperates with other Open Science initiatives like Databib,[7] BioSharing,[8]DataCite[9] and OpenAIRE.[10] Several publishers, research institutions and funders refer to re3data.org in their Editorial Policies and guidelines as a tool for the identification of suitable data repositories, e.g. Nature,[11]Springer[12] and the European Commission.[13]
