Pathways of Engagement for an R2 Campus with the All of Us Researcher Workbench
Lisa Connor
Lightning Talk 2023-03-28 Research Data RDAP Summit 2023
A novel way to engage a community of faculty and students and promote access to large data sets supporting innovation and research practice, and health equity, will be described. Preliminary informal conversations with faculty at a university recently designated as Carnegie classification of R2 have demonstrated the need and desire to gain access to data in support of undergraduate, graduate, and [...]
Community Engagement and Research Support as Solutions for Expanding Data Access and Use of Web Archives
Samantha Fritz
Lightning Talk 2023-03-28 Research Data RDAP Summit 2023
For nearly three decades, the web has consciously been archived by memory institutions to preserve our borndigital cultural heritage. This has led to petabytes of data formatted as web archives and significantly expands the scope and scale of data for scholars. But there are many acute challenges research communities faces, from the availability of analytical tools, community infrastructure, and [...]
Pearls and Pitfalls: A Story of a Programmatic Data Pull
Wendy Kozlowski, Alicia Hofelich Mohr, Shawna Taylor
Presentation 2023-03-28 Research Data RDAP Summit 2023
As requirements for swift and sustainable data sharing are growing, questions of where and how researchers are sharing data are becoming increasingly important for institutions to answer. One of the goals of the Reality of Academic Data Sharing (RADS) Initiative, comprised of six academic institutions from the Data Curation Network (DCN), was to answer this question. This presentation will [...]
Walk the Talk: Turning Research Data Theory Into Practice Through Co-Authoring Health and Environmental Data Research
Kaitlin Throgmorton
Presentation 2023-03-28 Research Data RDAP Summit 2023
Data librarians frequently consult and instruct on research data best practices, but do not always have the opportunity to participate in data research projects themselves. This can create gaps in understanding how researchers manage, access, and process data, how they document and share data pipelines, and how we can help them create open and reproducible data research workflows up to best [...]
Responsible AI: Tools for Values-Driven AI in Libraries and Archives
Doralyn Rossman
Lightning Talk 2023-03-28 Research Data RDAP Summit 2023
Over the past few years, libraries and archives have embraced artificial intelligence (AI) as a powerful tool for enhancing metadata, improving search and discovery, recommending resources, powering library chatbots, and more. This presentation discusses the early activities of the IMLS-funded Responsible AI project, which considers the tension between innovating library services and protecting [...]
Digital Curation and VR: a Discussion on Virtual Bethel
Raneem Hijazi
Lightning Talk 2023-03-28 Research Data RDAP Summit 2023
The Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church of Indianapolis is woven deep into the fabric of the African American community, acting as a community center alongside a historic landmark. Due to financial hardships, this memorable church was sold and subsequently demolished--but not before the creation of Virtual Bethel, a comprehensive, immersive Virtual Reality experience of the interior of the [...]
Community-Based Curate-A-Thons to Preserve and Enhance Global Biodiversity Initiatives: Empowering Librarians, Researchers, and the Public
Andrea Pritt, Briana Wham
Presentation 2023-03-28 Research Data RDAP Summit 2023
STEM and Research Data Librarians collaborated with an international research team of conservation geneticists to create an educational curriculum around genetic diversity and data curation. The goal of the curriculum, and associated original research project, is to preserve and enhance global genetic biodiversity metadata to ensure data are FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and [...]
Describing Data Transformation Work in a Changing Data Curation Community
David Bleckley, Sara Lafia, Libby Hemphill
Presentation 2023-03-28 Research Data RDAP Summit 2023
Data transformation, defined as intentional change to a data file’s values, formats, or metadata, is a key component of data curation work, accounting for a large proportion of curators’ effort. While a great deal of research has been conducted on data curation, the literature detailing the work of data transformation within this context is limited. Understanding data transformation is critical [...]
A Curation Primer for Data Accessibility
Rachel Woodbrook
Lightning Talk 2023-03-28 Research Data RDAP Summit 2023
This lightning talk will summarize the results of an internship culminating in the creation of a data curation primer concerning the accessibility of data. Data accessibility (in terms of things like assistive technologies) is a very broad area with little centralized information currently available, and has not yet received the attention it warrants in the field of data management and other data [...]
diyddi: A Web Application To Build Metadata Through Curator/Researcher Collaboration
Daniel Woulfin
Lightning Talk 2023-03-28 Research Data RDAP Summit 2023
diyddi is an open-licensed web application designed to reduce barriers between researchers and curators when preparing for archiving and sharing data. Recently, data sharing has become more central when publishing in the social sciences, especially after the American Psychological Association (APA) endorsed the Transparency and Openness Promotion Guidelines in 2021. Many researchers are [...]
Reusable for Who? Discussing “Data Science Ready” Repository Design
Ali Krzton
Lightning Talk 2023-03-28 Research Data RDAP Summit 2023
Research data repositories are intended to make data FAIR - findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable - but implementing these principles in practical terms entails deciding how to evaluate FAIRness. Recent interpretations of interoperability and reusability, in particular, have based their metrics of progress in implementation around facilitating machine processes. In other words, [...]
A Guide to Responsible and Inclusive Data Ethics
Nancy Shin, Lynly Beard
Poster 2022-03-17 Research Data RDAP Summit 2022
Building a Data Lifecycle Management Toolkit to Support Diversity Scholarship
Rachel Woodbrook
Presentation 2022-03-17 Research Data RDAP Summit 2022
There are increasing demands on researchers to continue refining their data practices, including requirements for data sharing coming from federal and other funders. However, support to appropriately manage and assess data (e.g., for sharing) is nonstandard and inconsistent, often relying on the resources of specific institutions, mentors, or individual experience. This is likely to have a [...]
Bring Your Own Data (BYOD) Working Groups: A New Service to Multiply Staff Impact and Create Community
Colby Witherup Wood
Presentation 2022-03-17 Research Data RDAP Summit 2022
Research data professionals have limited time to assist researchers one-on-one, and remote work has reduced or eliminated casual interactions with researchers at workshops or other events. Remote work has also impacted researchers, reducing opportunities to get advice from both research data professionals and peers, as well as interfering with the structure and accountability needed to make [...]
Expanding the Table: The Role of Library Data Professionals in Data Governance
Abigail Goben, Heather Coates, Kristin Briney
Presentation 2022-03-17 Research Data RDAP Summit 2022
As research data management and sharing has become ubiquitous, the need for data governance - coordinated decision-making around research data across all levels of an institution - has come to the forefront. Data governance is needed to address immediate and changing issues such as emerging funder policies as well as the ongoing challenge of researchers leaving an institution. Data governance [...]
