# Rule 8. Foster and use data repositories.  Sometimes the hardest and most time-consuming step of sharing data and code is finding and deciding where to put them. Your communityof reference  may already have a standard repository. If you don't know where to start looking, ask an information, information specialist, such as a  data scientist, scientist  or a  librarian working in your field. See http://databib.org/ for a current list of data repositories. If your field has no domain-based repository, your institution may have one. Your local librarian or archivist can instruct you on how to host your data at your institution. If neither your community nor your institution have dedicated repositories, a variety of generic repository sites are available (see Appendix). If you get more ambitious, how about installing and promoting a repository yourself?
