Traditionally mediated asynchronously through the literature

Faraday’s laboratory notebooks are also remarkable in the amount
of detail that they give about the design and setting up of
experiments, interspersed with comments about their outcome
and thoughts of a more philosophical kind. All are couched in plain language, with many vivid phrases of delightful spontaneity….

Open Notebook Science• Certainly not always the way to work!
– IPR, Commercial, long term projects, recognition issues, etc
• But
– Makes connection much easier if the data and processes are “Open”
– Easy to export & access of “Linked-Data”

Validation
• Increasing the value of data
• How to bring all the necessary information together to enable appropriate validation
• Increasingly difficult & expensive to achieve
• Need provenance and context
• Essential step otherwise just a collection of items

Unavailable Information• Not just lots of data but why are many of
the structures unpublished so certainly unavailable?
• The E-Crystals and E-Bank Project looked at how to address this issue
• Is making data availablethe same as depositing a copy with someone else?
