Data may no longer be accessible either by design (e.g. a defined life-span within limited financial resources or legal requirements to destroy sensitive data) or by accident. However, given that those data may have been used and are referenced by others, it is important that consumers have, at the very least, access to high quality metadata that describes those resources sufficiently to minimally understand their nature and their provenance, even when the relevant data are not available anymore. This principle relies heavily on the ‘second purpose’ of principle F3 (the metadata record contains the identifier of the data), because in the case where the data record is no longer available, there must be a clear and precise way of discovering its historical metadata record. This aspect of accessibility is further elaborated in the Joint Declaration of Data Citation Principles (doi:10.25490/a97f-egyk). https://w3id.org/fair/icc/terms/A2-Explanation http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#isDefinedBy https://w3id.org/fair/icc/latest/A2-Explanation https://w3id.org/fair/icc/terms/A2-Explanation http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#label A2 Explanation https://w3id.org/fair/icc/terms/A2-Explanation http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#seeAlso http://www.dcc.ac.uk/ https://w3id.org/fair/icc/terms/A2-Explanation http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#seeAlso http://www.dcc.ac.uk/resources/data-management-plans https://w3id.org/fair/icc/terms/A2-Explanation http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#seeAlso https://doi.org/10.1162/dint_a_00043 https://w3id.org/fair/icc/terms/A2-Explanation http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#seeAlso https://doi.org/10.25490/a97f-egyk https://w3id.org/fair/icc/terms/A2-Explanation https://w3id.org/fair/icc/terms/explains-principle https://w3id.org/fair/principles/terms/A2 https://w3id.org/fair/icc/terms/A2-Explanation https://w3id.org/fair/icc/terms/implementation-considerations Current choices/challenges are for communities to choose/define a persistence policy for metadata that describes data that may not always be available, choose/define machine-actionable templates for a persistence policy document for metadata, and in addition choose/define a machine-actionable scheme to reference the metadata persistence policy. https://w3id.org/fair/icc/terms/A2-Explanation https://w3id.org/fair/icc/terms/implementation-examples Examples of early attempts to address this critical principle relates closely to the principles of digital curation (http://www.dcc.ac.uk/) including the concept of a FAIR compliant DMP (Data Management Plan; http://www.dcc.ac.uk/resources/data-management-plans) (doi:10.1162/dint_a_00043). Many other efforts are underway to improve the long-term stewardship of reusable digital resources. https://w3id.org/fair/principles/terms/A2 http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#label A2 https://w3id.org/fair/icc/np/A2-Explanation/RASqc1YjfNdnBZ8X3hAVGqdY3q_T3e6cPs-PsbW6NZDfE#provenance https://w3id.org/fair/icc/np/A2-Explanation/RASqc1YjfNdnBZ8X3hAVGqdY3q_T3e6cPs-PsbW6NZDfE#assertion http://purl.org/pav/authoredBy https://w3id.org/fair/icc/terms/FAIR-Principles-Explained-Working-Group https://w3id.org/fair/icc/np/A2-Explanation/RASqc1YjfNdnBZ8X3hAVGqdY3q_T3e6cPs-PsbW6NZDfE#pubinfo https://w3id.org/fair/icc/np/A2-Explanation/RASqc1YjfNdnBZ8X3hAVGqdY3q_T3e6cPs-PsbW6NZDfE http://purl.org/dc/terms/created 2019-11-22T18:41:24.945+01:00 https://w3id.org/fair/icc/np/A2-Explanation/RASqc1YjfNdnBZ8X3hAVGqdY3q_T3e6cPs-PsbW6NZDfE http://purl.org/dc/terms/creator https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8888-635X https://w3id.org/fair/icc/np/A2-Explanation/RASqc1YjfNdnBZ8X3hAVGqdY3q_T3e6cPs-PsbW6NZDfE http://purl.org/dc/terms/creator https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1267-0234 https://w3id.org/fair/icc/np/A2-Explanation/RASqc1YjfNdnBZ8X3hAVGqdY3q_T3e6cPs-PsbW6NZDfE http://purl.org/dc/terms/creator https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4818-2360 https://w3id.org/fair/icc/np/A2-Explanation/RASqc1YjfNdnBZ8X3hAVGqdY3q_T3e6cPs-PsbW6NZDfE http://purl.org/dc/terms/license https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/
