[Themaintainers] References on financial maintenance of information/data infrastructures?

[Mark Parsons]

Kalpana,

You my find this OECD report on business models for repositories useful: 
OECD. (2017). Business models for sustainable research data repositories. https://doi.org/10.1787/302b12bb-en 

It, in turn, has many other references notably on studies of the ROI of repositories.

cheers,
