A total of 38 people took part in the online questionnaire survey and 17 participated in face\u2010to\u2010face interviews, accounting for 55 responses in total.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Findings<\/jats:title><jats:p>Members of academic and research staff in chemistry from institutions in the UK were, in general, favourably disposed towards the idea of linking research data and published research outputs, believing that this facility would be either a significant advantage or useful for the research conducted in the domain. Further information about the nature of the research that they conduct, the type of data that they produce, the sharing and availability of research data and the use and expectations of source and output repositories is also discussed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Research limitations\/implications<\/jats:title><jats:p>Interpretation of the results must recognise that the majority of the interviewees worked in the area of theoretical\/computational chemistry and therefore their views may not be representative of other chemistry research fields.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Originality\/value<\/jats:title><jats:p>Such data was essential for the business analysis that described the functional requirements for the development of the key deliverable of the source\u2010to\u2010output repositories (StORe) project, the pilot middleware, which aimed to facilitate and demonstrate the bi\u2010directional links between source and output repositories. It also enabled the identification of workflows in research practice and contributed to the prime aspiration of the StORe project which was to invest new value to the intellectual products of academic research.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1108\/00330330710831594","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,10,6]],"date-time":"2007-10-06T07:02:48Z","timestamp":1191654168000},"page":"386-399","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Use of digital repositories by chemistry researchers: results of a survey"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"41","author":[{"given":"Panayiota","family":"Polydoratou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]}],"member":"140","reference":[{"key":"key2022031219555784700_b1","unstructured":"Coles, S., Frey, J., Hursthouse, M., Milsted, A., Carr, A., Gutteridge, C., Lyon, L., Heery, R. and Duke, M.
