21. Please enter any additional RCR training collaboration information you would like to share. N=3
Collaboration with the Office of Research is in the planning stages for the library’s research data services program.
Given that RCR incorporates many areas, there isn’t really any single or simple answer for who initiates sessions, what
the topics are, or when they happen. Some may be tied to curriculum, some are tied to research policy, while some are
ad hoc for process improvement.
The Research Education and Oversight office does not offer any regularly scheduled continuing education sessions, but
all PIs are required to obtain a continuing education credit in the responsible conduct of research every three years. The
Libraries Data Management workshops (when offered) and copyright workshops are the only regularly scheduled RCR-
credit sessions on campus, though other groups and departments offer their own one-off sessions.
