Funders increasingly require that data sets arising from sponsored research must be preserved and shared, many publishers either or encourage accompanying articles are made available through a publicly accessible repository. Additionally, researchers wish to make their regardless of funder requirements both enhance impact also propel the concept open science. However, curation activities support these preservation sharing costly, requiring advanced practices, training, specific technical...
INTRODUCTION Data curation may be an emerging service for academic libraries, but researchers actively “curate” their data in a number of ways—even if terminology not always align. Building on past userneeds assessments performed via survey and focus groups, the authors sought direct input from importance utilization specific activities. METHODS Between October 21, 2016, November 18, study team held groups with 91 participants at six different institutions to determine which activities were...
<strong>Objective</strong>: Many academic and research institutions are exploring opportunities to better support researchers in sharing their data. As partners the Data Curation Network project, our six developed a comparison of current levels provided for meet data goals through library-based repository curation services. <strong>Methods</strong>: Each institutional lead written summary services based on previously structure, followed by group discussion refinement descriptions. Service...
Qualitative data provide rich information on research questions in diverse fields. Recent calls for increased transparency and openness emphasize sharing. However, qualitative sharing has yet to become the norm internationally is particularly uncommon United States. Guidance archiving secondary use of required progress this regard. In study, we review benefits concerns associated with then describe results a content analysis guidelines from international repositories that archive data. A...
Abstract The novel coronavirus, COVID-19, has sparked an outflow of scientific research seeking to understand the virus, its spread, and best practices in prevention treatment. If this international effort is going be as swift effective possible, it will need rely on a principle open science. When researchers share data, code, software generally make their work transparent allows other verify expand upon work. Furthermore, public officials informed decisions. In study, we analyzed 535...
This case study analyzes the expertise, potential conflicts of interest, and objectivity editors, authors, peer reviewers involved in a 2022 special journal issue on fertility, pregnancy, mental health. Data were collected qualifications, organizational affiliations, relationships among six papers' three guest twelve reviewers. Two articles found to have undisclosed interest between an editor, multiple affiliated with anti-abortion advocacy lobbying groups, indicating compromised...
Research data sharing has become an expected component of scientific research and scholarly publishing practice over the last few decades, due in part to requirements for federally funded research. As a larger effort better understand workflows costs public access data, this project conducted high-level analysis where academic is most frequently shared. To do this, we leveraged DataCite Crossref application programming interfaces (APIs) search Publisher field elements demonstrating which...
The reproducibility of research is essential to rigorous science, yet significant concerns the reliability and verifiability biomedical have been recently highlighted. Ongoing efforts across several domains science policy are working clarify fundamental characteristics enhance transparency accessibility research. aim proceeding work develop an assessment tool operationalizing key concepts in domain, specifically for secondary data using electronic health record data. (RepeAT) was developed...
The COVID-19 pandemic has posed many challenges for academic and research libraries those working within them. Nearly everything that we do been questioned re-envisioned, our days are filled with new work, uncertainty, isolation. Because of this, one the areas library leaders must invest in re-envisioning is how can best support well-being morale colleagues. This article identifies discusses simple, informal, practical, easy strategies use to physical, emotional, spiritual, professional,...
Information professionals housed in academic libraries are increasingly taking a role supporting scholarly communication activities. This article investigates the extent to which formal has grown ARL libraries, skills and competencies necessary for work with data this capacity, how those relate research lifecycle. We find that formalized since 2012. also requisite have coalesced 2009 support of core group that, when lifecycle is considered, scholars.
RepeAT includes 103 unique variables grouped into five categories (research design and aim, database data collection methods, mining cleaning, analysis, sharing documentation). Preliminary results in manually processing 40 scientific manuscripts indicate components of the proposed framework with strong inter-rater reliability, as well directions for further research refinement RepeAT.
Geospatial data stewardship fosters user-driven collection, management, access, reuse, and preservation of location-based data. Academic research libraries are poised to be at the center geospatial stewardship, working with partners develop a sustainable, hub. This article argues for essential role in leading collaborative partnerships user-driven, spatial infrastructure that includes people, policies, standards, community perspectives, operational workflows. The emerging model...
EDITOR'S SUMMARY With reproducibility of research becoming a leading issue in academia, libraries are examiningtheir role promoting data and information transparency. The National Science Foundation's requirement for management plans projects, grant applications stressing evidence unbiased results scholars' demands standards together highlight the need attention to issue.Libraries increasingly seek staff with skills support their repositories, curation services, library science programs...
EDITOR'S SUMMARY With a focus that extends beyond library walls, promoting research data services must be point of cooperation across an institution's units and departments. An RDAP 2015 panel explored the value advisory committees or communities practice established at three universities to build strong services. Though several institutions have different primary areas, each functions as community with unique set shared interests goals, mutual relationships group identification. Each is...
