Data Curation: Cultivating Past Research Data for Future Consumption Wednesday, August 31, 2016 11:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m., EDT
This NISO virtual conference will explore the many aspects of data curation. The morning segment will provide attendees with an explanation of the services libraries are expected to offer, a discussion of the data lifecycle, ideas for fostering partnerships and collaboration, and information on the ever-present legal and ethical concerns of handling data. The afternoon program presents five case studies drawn from the hard sciences, the humanities, and the social sciences. Speakers will describe first-hand experiences in managing the unique challenges involved in curating data. Closing up the conference will be a wrap-up discussion surfacing those facets of data curation not covered previously.
