Bridging the Boundaries of Data Curation Across the DOE National Laboratory Complex
Shannon Sheridan, Alex May, Natalie Barnett, et al.
Presentation 2024-03-13 Research Data RDAP Summit 2024
This session will describe the implementation, operation, and current outcomes of the Department of Energy (DOE) National Laboratory Data Curation Working Group (DCWG). The goal of the working group is to connect disparate data professionals facing similar challenges and data curation tasks so that they may learn from each other and share resources to address the full lifecycle of data--from data [...]
LIbrary Data Services (LIDS) Dataset: A Golden Gate(way) to Collaboration
Chad Kahl, Joshua Newport, Lindsey Skaggs
Poster 2024-03-13 Research Data RDAP Summit 2024
Research data services (RDS) are growing rapidly in libraries. To better understand the current state of RDS across R1 and R2 institutions, how they've evolved since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, and who is providing these services, this research project built an interoperable Library Data Services (LIDS) dataset to inform RDS development and assessment. The dataset records data service [...]
Converting Collections Takes a Community: Facilitating Historic Data Conversion Projects
Jessica Ko, Kelsie Norek
Presentation 2024-03-13 Research Data RDAP Summit 2024
Updating archival holdings for researchers’ practical use in modern technological formats presents a perennial challenge for data archives. At the Roper Center for Public Opinion Research, the world’s oldest archive of social science data and the largest specializing in public opinion data, we have struggled and searched for means of contending with this challenge as well. With an ever-increasing [...]
DEIA and Data Professionals: Panel of Spring Workshop Participants
Mara Sedlins, Lisa Chinn, Jen Ferguson, et al.
Presentation 2024-03-13 Research Data RDAP Summit 2024
In January–March 2024, the RDAP DEIA Committee had the opportunity to host a racial equity-focused series of workshops led by Sofia Leung and facilitated by Deborah Caldwell. The series of workshops focused on building a sustainable practice of anti-racist principles, as well as building an understanding of unequitable practices that lead to unequal and unjust treatment for staff and library [...]
Bridging Boundaries: A Community-Led Survey of Institutional Collection Administrators
Danica Evering, Meghan Goodchild, Shahira Khair
Presentation 2024-03-13 Research Data RDAP Summit 2024
Five years have passed since a recommendation was made by Canada's research library association to establish a national research data repository that would lower the barrier of access for Canada's institutions to offer services to researchers to deposit and share their research data. The benefits of a national repository included pooling resources, economies of scale, and leveraging [...]
Identifying Patterns of Racial Discrimination through Natural Language Processing
Chreston Miller, LaDale Winling
Presentation 2024-03-13 Research Data RDAP Summit 2024
Can scholars use Natural Language Processing (NLP) on racial covenants to track the path of racial segregation through American cities and across the country? Can a digitally enhanced public research project help a metropolitan community reckon with the racial segregation that is fundamental to its history? This project is approaching archival land records with a data sensibility because [...]
An introduction to the NIH Common Data Elements (CDE) Repository
Sarah Villere
Lightning Talk 2024-03-13 Research Data RDAP Summit 2024
The NIH Common Data Elements (CDE) Repository provides free online access to search and use Common Data Elements. This tool can be used to standardize research data, save time and resources, and improve the accuracy of and interoperability among datasets. This session will look at the NIH Common Data Elements (CDE) Repository, providing an overview of the database and discussing why it is [...]
Bridging Data Communities: Interoperability Through Inclusive, Cross-Institutional Collaboration
Lisa Ngo, Anna Sackmann, Misha Coleman, et al.
Presentation 2024-03-13 Research Data RDAP Summit 2024
At UC Berkeley, librarians address social components needed to make systems interoperable by leveraging on-campus and cross-institutional collaborations to create opportunities for students to learn basic data analysis skills with Python. The Library partners with undergraduate Data Science Discovery Consultants to provide introductory data analysis workshops. The student instructors work with [...]
Normalizing Research Data for Interoperability
Madison Golden
Lightning Talk 2024-03-13 Research Data RDAP Summit 2024
Interoperability as defined by the NNLM includes "ways in which data is formatted that allow diverse datasets to be merged or aggregated in meaningful ways. It is a key aspect of the FAIR Data Principles, constituting the “I” in FAIR”. While many data management practices aid in data interoperability including standard file formats and thorough documentation, dataset and database structure is [...]
Global Open Research Commons: A Model for Improved Interoperability and Collaboration
CJ Woodford
Presentation 2024-03-13 Research Data RDAP Summit 2024
The coordination of data infrastructure on various levels is on the rise. So called “Open Science Commons” or “Data commons” provide a shared virtual space for data and services. The Research Data Alliance Global Open Research Commons Interest Group (GORC-IG) is working to support coordination amongst national, pan-national and domain specific organizations such as the European Open Science [...]
Developing Specialized Data Curation Trainings: A Community-Driven Approach
Sophia Nicole Lafferty-Hess
Lightning Talk 2024-03-12 Research Data RDAP Summit 2024
Duke University, in collaboration with other partner institutions and members of the Data Curation Network (DCN), received an Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) grant [re-252343-ols-22] to support the development of specialized curriculum for data curation training for academic library and archives staff. The project drew together data curators and information professionals to create [...]
Collaborative Development of a Statistics Microlearning Course for Health Professionals
Lena Bohman, Regina Vitiello, Michael Kelly
Presentation 2024-03-12 Research Data RDAP Summit 2024
In this presentation, we will discuss the process we used to design an asynchronous online course on statistics at a large hospital system. This project was sparked by a survey showing residents needed more support in statistics. The three presenters, two librarians and an eLearning expert, collaborated to come up with a solution tailored to the busy schedules of healthcare professionals. The [...]
Extending One-Shot RDM Instruction: Creating a Workbook of Data Management Exercises to Supplement Data Information Literacy Sessions
Kristin Briney
Lightning Talk 2024-03-12 Research Data RDAP Summit 2024
How do we help researchers translate data management fundamentals into customized practice within their research when the most common form of information literacy – the one-time, lecture-based workshop – is not enough to support this transition? While some data management educators have had success delivering full data management curricula, either through a for-credit course or online modules, [...]
Working with the Research Grants Enterprise: No Controlled Vocabulary for Jargon!
Nina Exner
Presentation 2024-03-12 Research Data RDAP Summit 2024
Library jargon and grants jargon both impede the social interoperability of RDM for grants. The structure of the research enterprise and goals of research support professionals are often opaque to RDM librarians. Building a close relationship with research administrators and other professionals in “the grants office” can vastly expand the effectiveness of RDM support. However, it can be difficult [...]
