[Rdap] UNC-Chapel Hill Data Stewardship report now available

[Hayes, Barrie E]

Apologies for cross-posting.

Over the last year, a Provost-appointed task force at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill investigated the data management landscape through literature review, conversations with faculty and staff, and an in-depth faculty survey designed and administered by the Odum Institute.  The resulting report was submitted to University administrators in mid-February with recommendations for university policies and procedures.  While the recommendations specific to our campus have been redacted, the rest of the report is now publicly available online:

Although the main body of the report covers material with which many on this list are likely  familiar, the appendices may be of interest.  Appendix 5 provides the interview questions for the group's initial case studies of how faculty manage their research data, some of which are highlighted in the text of the report.  Appendix 6 provides the faculty survey instrument; and Appendix 7 presents the summarized results of the survey, with a total of 2,765 respondents.

Best,

Barrie
