The ERNS has established site-wide settings for use of LabArchives. These settings are based on university policies regarding data security, retention and management.
Users are NOT allowed to:
- delete notebooks (to maintain a full record of research conducted at Northwestern)
- transfer notebook ownership to non-Northwestern users without approval (for the same reason as above)
- copy content from one notebook to another (to prevent copying data to a non-Northwestern entity)
- share data stored on LabArchives publicly (to avoid accidental disclosure of Level 2 data)
