Abstract
This report aims to support research data professionals and their institutions with the task of working to make repositories and the data in them digitally accessible. The report will help them understand the requirements from the rules, their implications, and the work and changes they may require. The report emphasizes that repository and data accessibility should not be an afterthought, but a fundamental part of the research lifecycle. The report prepared by the Research Data Access & Preservation (RDAP) Association's Digitally Accessible Data and Data Repositories Working Group
