The
UC Libraries Data Curation Common Knowledge Group has created the first video (https://youtu.be/Lr722k7NyGU) of a
proposed video series aimed at promoting awareness of the fundamental
concepts and practices for managing research data. The Data Curation CKG
identified a shared need for reusable educational material on research data
curation among UC campuses. This introductory video incorporates the voices and
testimonials of UC researchers to communicate the importance of good data
management practices.
We
encourage campus libraries to promote the video through websites, social media,
and other appropriate communication channels. Options for sharing, including
HTML code for embedding the video in web pages, are available by selecting
“Share” under the YouTube video. When
embedding, select "Show More" for advanced options (such as removing
suggested videos when the video finishes).
Viewers
are encouraged to complete a brief feedback survey, linked to at the end of the
video, and available here: http://guides.lib.ucr.edu/uclibrariesdataservices/feedback
Viewership
and feedback will be used to assess this pilot and inform future development of
the series. Questions or feedback can also be submitted directly to the project
leads, Kat Koziar (katherine.koziar@ucr.edu) and Emily Lin (elin@ucmerced.edu).
Thank
you.
