Research Data Management Training Developed on the back of the Data Audit Framework lead by HATII (Edinburgh being one of the pilot implementation projects) – developing online tools and methodologies which enable information specialists to engage and build relationships with researchers in order to ascertain the data holdings in a research school / department / group Developing online and F-2F modules in conjunction with the Postgraduate Transferable Skills Unit - http:// www.transkills.ed.ac.uk / and PG Essentials - http:// www.transkills.ed.ac.uk/pgessentials.htm Research data management guidance & Data sharing and preservation – http:// www.ed.ac.uk /is/data-management Flickr CC Image – http://www.flickr.com/photos/sgrantarch/3563676104/ Engaging researchers through RDM exercises, teaching, reference interviews & funded-projects are crucial to the bottom-up development of tools, services and infrastructures meant to serve them and which ultimately improve both the efficiency and effectiveness of their research.

Hi – can you hear me OK? I’m going to talk to you this morning about the evolution Edinburgh Datashare data repository
First of its kind in the UK – primarily within the social sciences but not exclusively so 2 data library services – this morning I’ll concentrate on Edinburgh Datashare Advise on storing, versioning, documenting, formatting and anonymising researchers’ data for sharing or preserving for future use in an archive or repository
Depositing data, access and re-use, data quality requirements, metadata, confidentiality and disclosure, formatting, versioning, preservation, normalisation, back-up, storage, security
IT Committee & library Committee currently reviewing Research Data Storage and Research Data Management – review current practice, develop options including costs, feasibility and risk analysis of actions/inactions in this field (Prof. Jeff Haywood – professor of educaiton and technology / Vice principal for kmnowledge management
By-pass 1.5.2 bug fix – upgrade to 1.6 next year Registration streamlined using the University’s single sign-on Date range enabled to allow Time Period (dc:coverage) Anti-virus checking upon upload Joint Academic Classification of Subjects – HESA / UCAS classify academic subjects based on undergraduate degrees
RDF tools – both content and metadata
Allows institutions to identify, locate, describe and assess how they are managing their research data RDM as a means to engage with researchers (PhD students, early career scientists) with a view to embedding good RMD practice. Also introducing researchers to concept of data repositories as a home for research data output
School of geosciences Digital Equipment and Database Enhancement for Impact AHRC call Target audience academic researchers and teachers, also repository developers, public archives, seconday teaching professionals, policy professionals and urban designers, in areas of housing, heritage and sustainable cities
Initial stages of discussion – the impending JISC RDM Infrastructure call for developer time Scottish Alliance for Geoscience, Environment and Society – multi-university consortium c.f. collaboration and publication domains as developed at Monash
