A Case Study of Secondary Use of Qualitative Data
What is this about?
A five-year research project, Knowledge Utilization and Policy Implementation, funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, incorporates the secondary use of qualitative data sets from multiple separate research projects across Canada. The case study provides useful recommendations for dealing with central questions regarding anonymization. It also considers the strengths and weaknesses of anonymization policies[1].

Why is this important?
As the case study describes, "[a]nonymization—the removal of identifying information from data—is one way of preparing data for secondary use. Close examination shows that the practice is full of methodological, ethical and theoretical tensions. Anonymization can hide important contextual information that is potentially valuable to the researcher."[1]
