Research Data Management

This toolkit offers guidance for researchers, librarians, and administrators on managing research data

 

Research Data Management Training Series and Discussion Group

Registration link: https://sunyolis.libcal.com/event/10902708

Goal: Provide educational resources and a forum for shared experience in Research Data Management across SUNY System. Will be achieved through a flipped-classroom model, pairing speakers and live discussions with specific MOOC modules for additional self-paced learning.   

Intended Audience: Librarians and administrators interested in learning more about research data management. No experience required to participate. Participants with experience in research data, data publishing in shared repositories, institutional repositories, and data services are also welcome to participate and share their knowledge. 

Learning Outcomes: 

  • Provide a learning forum and open discussion for research data services in libraries 

  • Understand different research data lifecycle models and where librarians can engage with the research process   

  • Support creation of data management and sharing plans 

  • Plan for launching and managing data services within libraries and across institutions  

  • Identify research data partners on campus 

  • Build scaffolding and advocate for research data management at your institution with appropriate stakeholders 

  • Discover various platform tools within a larger data ecosystem 

This training series will complement a future ACRL-led event “Building Your Research Data Management Toolkit: Integrating RDM into Your Liaison Work” (Off-RoadShow Virtual Workshop)
