Title:
Building Communities and Services in Support of Data-Intensive Research<br>
Presenter:
Stephen Abrams, <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">California</st1:place></st1:State>
Digital Library (CDL)<br>
<br>
Abstract:<br>
<br>
Information technology and resources are an integral and indispensable part of
the contemporary academic enterprise. In particular, technological
advances have nurtured a new paradigm of data-intensive research. However, far
too much of this activity still takes place in silos, to the detriment of open
scholarly inquiry, integrity, and advancement. To counteract this tendency, the
University of California Curation Center (UC3) has been developing and
deploying a comprehensive suite of curation services that facilitate widespread
data management, preservation, publication, sharing, and reuse. Through these
services UC3 is engaging with new communities of use: in addition to its
traditional stakeholders in cultural heritage memory organizations, e.g.,
libraries, museums, and archives, the UC3 service suite is now attracting
significant adoption by research projects, laboratories, and individual faculty
researchers. This webinar will present an introduction to five specific
services – DMPTool, DataUp, EZID, Merritt, Web Archiving Service (WAS)
– applicable to data curation throughout the scholarly lifecycle, two recent
initiatives in collaboration with UC campuses, UC Berkeley Research Hub and UC
San Francisco DataShare, and the ways in which they encourage and promote new
communities of practice and greater transparency in scholarly research.<br>
