Results are presented from the Data Curation Profiles project research, on who is willing to share what data with whom and when. Emerging scientists' discussions sharing several dimensions suggestive of variation in both it means 'to share' how these processes carried out. This research indicates that curation services will need accommodate a wide range subdisciplinary characteristics practices. As part larger set strategies emerging across academic institutions, institutional repositories...

Researchers increasingly need to integrate the disposition, management, and curation of their data into current workflows. However, it is not yet clear what extent faculty students are sufficiently prepared take on these responsibilities. This paper articulates for a information literacy program (DIL) prepare engage in such an "e-research" environment. Assessments interviews student performance geoinformatics course provide complementary sources information, which then filtered through...

This paper presents a brief literature review and then introduces the methods, design, construction of Data Curation Profile, an instrument that can be used to provide detailed information on particular data forms might curated by academic library. These are presented in context related sub-disciplinary research area, they flow process from which these generated. The profiles also represent needs for curation perspective producers, using their own language. As such, support exploration...

This paper describes the initial results from Data Information Literacy (DIL) project designed to identify educational needs of graduate students across a variety science disciplines and respond with effective interventions meet those needs. The DIL consists five teams in disparate four academic institutions United States. include data librarian, subject-specialist or information literacy faculty member representing disciplinary group students. Interviews members present detailed snapshot...

In this work, we present details and initial results from a ¹⁷⁷Lu dosimetry challenge that has been designed to collect data the global nuclear medicine community aiming at identifying, understanding, quantitatively characterizing consequences of various sources variability in dosimetry. <b>Methods:</b> The covers different approaches performing dosimetry: planar, hybrid, pure SPECT. It consists 5 independent tasks measure each step workflow. Each task involves calculation...

Libraries are actively seeking to identify and respond the data management curation needs of researchers. One important perspective often overlooked in acquiring an understanding is that graduate students. This case study used Data Curation Profile Toolkit interview six students working for agronomy researchers at Water Quality Field Station (WQFS) research lab understand students’ practices with data, challenges they face, their attitudes toward managing sharing data. Though a small study,...

With Internet of Things (IoT) gaining presence throughout different industries a lot new technologies have been introduced to support this undertaking. Implications on one such technology, wireless systems allowed for the use communication methods achieve goal transferring data reliably, with more cost efficiency and over longer distances. Anywhere from single house only few IoT devices as smart light bulb or thermostat connected network, all way complex system that can control power grids...

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...

EDITOR'S SUMMARY Building data information literacy among faculty, graduate students and undergrads was the focus of a 2015 RDAP Summit panel, with panelists describing programs at different institutions geared to each these target groups. The Data Information Literacy project identified 12 key competencies for how librarians could help build those skills. Management Strategies Self‐Assessment encourages junior faculty members objectively consider their research management practices...

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...

For liaison or subject librarians, entering into the emerging area of providing researchers with data services partnering them on cyberinfrastructure projects can be a daunting task. This article will provide some advice as to what expect and how folded other duties. New skills for librarians traditional that adapted curation work also discussed. A case study authors' experiences collaborating two chemistry faculty an e-science project serves framework majority this article.

Purpose As libraries become more involved in curating research data, reference librarians will need to be trained conducting data interviews with researchers better understand their and associated needs. This article seeks identify provide definitions for the basic terms concepts of curation properly frame carry out a interview using Data Curation Profiles (DCP) Toolkit. Design/methodology/approach The DCP Toolkit is semi‐structured designed assist identifying needs researchers. components...

There is an increasing need for graduate students to acquire competencies in managing and curating their data sets as a part of education. Librarians other information professionals are beginning respond this by developing programming, but yet there few models follow the impact on practices under-explored. This case study presents student-centered pilot program literacy offered at Purdue University. The was through College Agriculture structured be flexible enough incorporate each...

<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...

This paper describes the Repository Readiness initiative and subsequent Summit for Academic Institutional in Data Sharing (STAIRS). These efforts examined current state of institutional research data services repositories at US academic institutions. Using federal memos directives published 2022 as a foundation, members Curation Network hosted virtual learning series to identify areas collaboration across The themes this led STAIRS, which brought representatives from 32 institutions, discuss...

This paper describes an investigation into how researchers in different fields are interpreting and responding to the U.S. National Science Foundation’s data management plan (DMP) requirement. As documents written by themselves, DMPs can provide insight researchers’ understanding of potential value their others; environment which developed prepared; willingness ability ensure available others now long-term. With support from Institute Museum Library Services, authors conducted a content...

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...
