Table Topics Submissions Due

RDAP15, the sixth annual Research Data Access and Preservation Summit, is
accepting proposals (max. 300 words) for panels, interactive posters,
lightning talks, and discussion tables. Themes for RDAP15 were selected by
this year’s planning committee with input from previous years’ attendees
and RDAP community members.

*Interactive Posters*
We are soliciting on any of the following themes:

   - Institutional policies for research data
   - Building/expanding research data services
   - Collaboration or tension between units involved with research data
   - Institutional responses to government policies/guidelines concerning
   research data
   - Systems/strategies for full-life cycle research data curation
   - Tools developed and/or used for data curation/management
   - Digital preservation
   - Data citation and reuse
   - Data repositories (institutional/disciplinary/other)
   - Education and training for research data management/curation

*Themed Lightning Talks*
We are seeking lightning talks on the theme:  Building a community of
Practice for Research Data Services: Experiences of academic institutions,
government agencies and organizations.

Research data management is a trending topic in higher education government
agencies and organizations. The experiences of these institutions and
groups range from creating, developing research data management services
and the multi-faceted approaches to implementing the research data
management services. Although some of these experiences include but are not
limited to: obtaining university and campus support, building partnerships
with faculty, data management consultations, assisting with data management
plans and data literacy. We’re interested in learning more about the
experiences, challenges and lessons learned of other institutions,
organizations and agencies during the RDAP 15 summit.


*Discussion Tables*
In addition to the traditional conference presentations, we’re looking for
interested and knowledgeable people to lead discussion tables during the
Summit. Topics include, but are not limited to, the topics listed above for
posters. If interested, submit a short description on the submission page.

*Submissions*
Submissions for Interactive Posters, (Seven Minute) Lightning Talks, and
Discussion Table topics are due January 16, 2015.
