The Digital Curation Centre (DCC) has just refreshed and replenished their catalogue of tools and services for managing and curating research data.

Beside a new look the catalogue has been overhauled to focus on software and services that directly perform curation and management tasks.
The catalogue splits these resources into five major categories, based on who the intended users are (e.g. researchers or curators) and what stage of the data lifecycle they will be most useful in (deposit and ingest / archiving and preserving / managing and administering / managing active research data / sharing output and tracking input).

Sub-categories contain tables for quick comparison of tools against others that perform similar functions, linked to in-depth descriptions of how the resource can help.

…in my opinion a very helpful collection of tools.
