摘要：Concerns raised about the lack of preservation initiatives and poor access to global scientific knowledge in the form of primary research data and records for research in the turn of the 20th century resulted in the development of a variety of ways to remedy the inadequacies associated with scholarly research data/products and dissemination of knowledge pertaining to research activities. The aim of the paper is to examine the needs for the surveyed social science research institutions in Malaysian government for the preservation of their digital primary research data. This paper presents the findings of the survey questionnaires of the existing practices on the preservation of primary research data in the selected Malaysian research institutions and related organizations. The questions asked in the survey were based on the elements of the generic preservation framework.
