  • The abstract should provide a clear and brief descriptive signpost for researchers who are searching for data that may be relevant to their research.

  • The abstract should allow the reader to determine the scope of the data collection and accurately summarise its content. 

  • Effective abstracts should avoid long sentences and abbreviations where possible. 

  • Note: Researchers will view Titles and Abstracts when searching for datasets and choosing whether to explore their content further. Abstracts should be different from the full description for a dataset.
