Session Description

The success of Research Data Management (RDM) programs at universities relies principally upon outreach and collaboration. Since arriving at the UConn library in June 2017, we have rebuilt a research data management outreach and education program that was largely dormant. Collaboration and outreach consist largely of metaphorically “opening doors” for others in our campus’ research community: graduate students, faculty, staff, and upper-class undergraduates. We aim to increase awareness of research data management best practices, and thereby improve the success of research completed at our university.
