service(s)
Offered by the library Offered by the library AND elsewhere Only offered elsewhere Not offered
If you selected Other RDM service(s), please briefly describe the service. N=7
Offered by the library
Conversion of analog image data to digital data.
Helping researchers document their data (not confined to the use of metadata standards.) Also, we do outreach to
research groups to initiate conversations about their data management challenges as part of our assessment of needs.
Offered by the library AND elsewhere
Beyond the Libraries, there is at least one data management initiative. The Research Data Repository operates outside
of the Libraries but is attempting to address some data management and curation needs in the health sciences. The
repository collaborates with the Libraries on design, metadata standards, and other points of interest.
Data publication, data rights management.
The libraries are working with campus partners, especially IT, on data management tools, such as electronic lab
notebooks.
We did a survey of researchers about their data management habits and needs set up a listserv for data management
questions for researchers on campus beginning this month will offer a set of user group meetings exploring various
software tools with our central IT expanding storage available for research data we are beginning a pilot to support
long term managed arching of data through our planned digital repository.
We in the library offer information to help researchers assess their RDM needs and refer them to appropriate services on
campus that can address those needs. To my knowledge, no other campus organization offers researchers such referral
information on its web site, though they may provide it informally/in person.
