 As of January 1, 2017, all Faculty are entitled to deposit Research data into the Duke Digital Repository up to 2.5 GB for unsponsored projects or 10 GB for sponsored projects for preservation. Additional preservation-level storage can be provided at the cost of:
- $0.282/GB per year billed annually
- $1.41/GB one time for five (5) years of preservation
- $1.97/GB one time for seven (7) years of preservation
- $7.05/GB one time for perpetual preservation
Duke graduate students, postdoctoral staff, or other Duke staff members who do not have a faculty member as a co-author or co-creator of their research data, qualify for 1.5 GB of storage for unsponsored projects and 5 GB of storage for sponsored projects. Any student with storage needs above this allocation will require a faculty sponsor to facilitate the payment of the additional preservation costs as listed above.
These costs will be updated annually to reflect any changes in costs and can be used for project and grant budgets. These costs reflect the direct cost of storage only. The Libraries do not charge for administrative overhead or indirect costs for this service.
