The document discusses research data management at Utah State University (USU). It provides a history of USU's data management efforts beginning in 2013 with the creation of a campus committee and the hiring of a Data Librarian in 2015. The librarians developed a compliance program to meet federal requirements for data sharing and launched it in 2016. They now provide standard resources like a website and consultations, as well as non-standard services like annual communication with researchers regarding data deposit requirements. The document concludes with suggestions for backing up data using the "Rule of 3," describing data adequately, and organizing data files and directories.

Your Work is Distinctive, What about Your Name?

This document summarizes a presentation given by Laurel Haak on ORCID identifiers. ORCID aims to uniquely identify researchers and link them to their work, such as publications, datasets, and grants. It discusses how ORCID identifiers can be integrated into author workflows and research systems. Over 160 organizations from different sectors have joined ORCID as members. Usage of ORCID is growing internationally, with over 1 million identifiers issued. The presentation outlines how different stakeholders like universities, funders, and repositories can connect with ORCID to link researcher profiles with their systems and activities.

Why does research data matter to libraries

- Research data matters to libraries because it is increasingly being produced and collected by researchers, and there are growing requirements to manage and preserve it. - A survey found that while most researchers currently manage their own data, there is a trend toward using institutional repositories and libraries more for long-term preservation. - Libraries are well-suited to help with research data management because of their experience organizing and describing information over long periods of time, but there are also challenges due to differences across disciplines in how data is defined and treated. - As funders and journals require better data sharing practices, libraries have an opportunity to take a more active role in helping researchers and institutions capture, describe, and manage research data over

National Information Standards Organization (NISO)

The document summarizes the role and challenges of research data management (RDM) information professionals from the perspective of a library practitioner. It discusses how RDM professionals educate researchers on topics like data management planning and repositories, consult on issues like workflows and publishing, and curate data to ensure findability, understandability and reuse. However, navigating relationships with different university offices, building shared understanding of technical concepts, and managing expectations with limited resources present challenges. Key principles for RDM professionals include keeping researchers central, considering future data re-users, and contributing to communities of practice. Ongoing gaps include supporting restricted and large data as well as developing actionable policies and training new professionals.

2014 CrossRef Workshops: Support Update and Multiple Resolution Overview

Crossref

The document discusses CrossRef's multiple resolution feature, which allows a single DOI to resolve to multiple URLs. It describes how a primary depositor can work with secondary depositors to set up multiple resolution for a DOI. The primary depositor notifies CrossRef and uses a flag to unlock the DOI for secondary depositors. Secondary depositors then submit their URL mappings which get added to the DOI resolution.

The expanding dataverse

Merce Crosas

This document summarizes Mercè Crosas's presentation on the expanding dataverse and advances in data publishing. It discusses the growth of digital data and need for data citation, repositories, and metadata to make data discoverable, accessible, and reusable. The Dataverse software provides a framework for publishing data across different repository types. Recent improvements allow for rigorous data citation compliant with principles, rich metadata, support for public and restricted data, and publication workflows. Future areas of focus include integration with other systems, support for sensitive data, and expanding data citation and APIs.

Who is using your metadata - Ginny Hendricks

Crossref

The document discusses how Crossref metadata helps researchers find and track information. Crossref collects metadata like titles, authors, and references from publishers and makes it available via APIs and tools. Many organizations use this metadata for search, discovery, author profiling, and funding tracking. Crossref is working to expand the metadata to include items like funder IDs, licenses, and ORCID IDs. This additional metadata would help tools like collaborative writing platforms and open data repositories that integrate Crossref data.

Some Ideas on Making Research Data: "It's the Metadata, stupid!"

Anita de Waard

This document discusses challenges and opportunities around research data management. It notes that while the majority of research data is currently stored locally on hard drives, funding agencies and researchers are increasingly focused on sharing, curating and ensuring long-term access to data. However, there are open questions around how to incentivize researchers to share data, ensure sustainable funding models for repositories, and develop interoperable metadata standards. The document explores potential roles for libraries, institutions, publishers and domain-specific repositories in addressing these issues.
