We set out to develop a collaborative service that will allow institutions like ours to better support researchers faced with a growing number of requirements to ethically share their research data. The result is a cross-institutional staffing model for curating research data. With the Data Curation Network, institutional users (e.g., academic libraries, disciplinary repositories, etc.) will be able to provide critical new data curation services when local resources are limited (without needing to hire) and to expand the scope of their curation support to new and/or less frequently encountered data types. </span><span style="background-color:transparent;font-family:Arial;font-size:11pt;white-space:pre-wrap">In our newly released report we share our next steps for launching the DCN.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;background-color:transparent;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap"><br></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;background-color:transparent;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">Thanks for reading!</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">Lisa</span></p><br><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">on behalf of the DCN planning team:</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;background-color:transparent;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">Lisa Johnston (U Minnesota)</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;background-color:transparent;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">Jake Carlson (U of Michigan)</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;background-color:transparent;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">Cynthia Hudson-Vitale (WashU St. Louis)</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;background-color:transparent;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">Heidi Imker (U of Illinois)</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;background-color:transparent;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">Wendy Kozlowski (Cornell)</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;background-color:transparent;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">Robert Olendorf (Penn State)</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;background-color:transparent;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">Claire Stewart (U of Minnesota)</span></p><div><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;background-color:transparent;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap"><br></span></div></span><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><font color="#000000"><br></font><div><font color="#000000">~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br></font></div><div><font color="#000000">Lisa Johnston</font></div><div><font color="#000000">Research Data Management/Curation Lead </font></div><div><font color="#000000">and Co-Director of the University Digital Conservancy</font></div><div><font color="#000000"><br>University of Minnesota Libraries</font></div><div><font color="#000000">108 Walter Library, Minneapolis, MN 55455 <br>Hangouts: <a href="mailto:ljohnsto@umn.edu" target="_blank">ljohnsto@umn.edu</a> / </font><span style="font-size:12.8px">Skype</span><font color="#000000">: ifylawwt</font></div><div><br></div><div><font color="#000000"><a href="http://lib.umn.edu/datamanagement" target="_blank">http://lib.umn.edu/datamanagement</a> | <a href="http://conservancy.umn.edu" target="_blank">http://conservancy.umn.edu</a><br><br>ORCID: <a href="http://orcid.org/0000-0001-6908-9240" target="_blank">http://orcid.org/0000-0001-6908-9240</a> </font><br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
