Repositories can be hosted at institutional servers or are provided by broader organisations or consortia such as NFDI4Chem. The use of repositories is essential for data deposition according to the [FAIR Data Principles](/docs/fair).

Some, but not all, repositories curate and review the data before **ingestion** with regard to their content and quality, sometimes also regarding legal aspects (copyright, data protection, [licenses](/docs/licenses)).

In order to allow data reuse by other researchers, [metadata](/docs/metadata), including [provenance information](/docs/provenance/), are required beside the actual data. Metadata describe the research data and provide information about its creation, the methods or software used as well as legal aspects. Metadata can be either added manually via a metadata editor or can be provided through other applications. The process to manually add metadata via a metadata editor can be compared to the process of submitting a manuscript to a publisher via the publishers submission system.

One main function of repositories is to provide a search function, with which users and machines can find, view, and download data. In order to ensure that data are permanently referenced and can be [linked and cited](/docs/best_practice/#how-to-use-dataset-pids-in-scientific-articles), repositories assign unique [persistent identifiers](/docs/pid) (PIDs). This also enhances the findability and accessibility of research data.

Repositories can also be certified (e.g. CoreTrustSeal). Such certification ensures that the data is citable, preserved in the long run, and may also cover aspects of data curation and data quality.

## Finding the right repository

Because of the multitudes of data repositories existing, users can better orient themselves using a research data repository registry such as [Re3data](https://www.re3data.org/), [OpenDOAR](https://v2.sherpa.ac.uk/opendoar/about.html), [ROAR](http://roar.eprints.org/), and [FAIRsharing](https://fairsharing.org/). Repository registry services are an essential component of the [FAIR Data Principles](/docs/fair) as they should help researchers navigate through thousands of data repository services to find the most appropriate repository for their data.

However, due to complex landscape of existing repositories, these registries tend to provide confusingly long lists that do not necessarily facilitate the selection of a suitable repository. Moreover, researchers should take the reuse policy, metadata sharing and availability, long-term availability of data, and public accessibility of a repository into account, which is often not obvious or easy to figure out.
