Episode 40: What a data steward actually does all day
Authors
Abstract
A frank account of the role, from metadata triage to the diplomacy of telling a professor their spreadsheet is unusable. The analysis draws on a corpus assembled from institutional repositories, preprint servers and publisher metadata feeds, and the full dataset together with the code needed to reproduce every figure is deposited under a permissive licence. Limitations, including coverage gaps in non-English sources, are set out in the discussion.
