Description

Co-presented by the Library, ITS, and the Office of Research, this workshop will walk you through the basic format of a data management plan, addressing writing data management plans, legal and ethical requirements, backup, storage, formatting issues for long-term preservation, and metadata standards that can make research data easier to find, use, and preserve. Data management plans outline the types of data that are associated with a research project and describe how the data will be collected, processed, and protected during the project; and how the data will be archived, described, and, when appropriate, made available to other researchers after the project’s completion.
