Universities are drowning in data, not only data produced by their
researchers and students, but also data they collect about their
communities. Research data are subject to sharing and retention
requirements by funding agencies and journals. Data from course management
systems, faculty personnel records, security cameras, and social media are
being used as indicators for decision making.

In this talk Christine L. Borgman -- author of the new book "Big Data,
Little Data, No Data: Scholarship in the Networked World" and Professor and
Presidential Chair in Information Studies at UCLA -- identifies challenges
faced by universities in managing and governing these complex categories of
data.
