Dear Colleagues,
The ICPSR Summer Program is offering the following week-long course this year
focused on curating and managing research data. Please click on the course
title below for a full description and information on enrolling.
Curating and Managing Research Data for
Re-use<http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/sumprog/courses/0149>, July
28-August 1, 2014
This workshop, taught by Louise Corti (UK Data Archive), Jared Lyle (ICPSR), and
Veerle Van den Eynden (UK Data Archive), will explore and apply the concepts and
benefits of life cycle principles for data curation, from selecting and
preparing data for archiving to optimizing and promoting data for reuse. ICPSR
social science quantitative datasets and UK Data Archive qualitative and
cross-disciplinary data collections will serve as case studies and participants
will track the datasets as they make their way through the data assessment,
review, processing, curation and publication pipeline. Participants will learn
about and gain proficiency in the full range of life cycle activities: data
review and preparation; confidential data management; effective documentation
practices; how to create, comply with, and evaluate required data management
plans; digital repository requirements and assessment; data dissemination and
publication; and running user support and promotional activities for data.
Emphasis will be placed on hands-on exercises demonstrating curation practices
and on small group discussions for sharing local experiences and learning from
others.
The workshop is aimed at individuals interested or actively engaged in the
curation and management of research data, in view of data sharing and reuse,
particularly data librarians, data archivists, data producers and stewards with
responsibilities for data management.
Best wishes,
Louise Corti
Director, Collections Development and Producer Relations
