Join us on Thursday, March 12, 2015 to hear Eefke Smit, Director, Standards and Technology, International Association of STM Publishers, and Todd Vision, Principal Investigator, Dryad Digital Repository, and Associate Director for Informatics, National Evolutionary Synthesis Center, Department of Biology, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill on how the information services community can collaborate on big data, open data, and research data.
====================================================================
What's Covered:
While the terms big data, open data and research data tend to be overused in the realm of buzzwords, this isn't the case in information services, as they're readily delivered in the government and commercial sectors.  For content providers, database administrators, libraries and researchers, there is much need for discussion and collaboration on data mining as a research practice; the sharing, reuse and recombination of data sets; and the potential for developing new products and services.

In this 90-minute webinar-the first part of a two-part series-attendees will learn more about:

  *   Tapping institutional repositories, data management centers and commercial platforms (e.g., Figshare).
  *   Working with government repositories (e.g., NAL, NSF, NIH).
  *   Where research data can be discovered.
  *   Accessibility of data in today's landscape.

The first part of this NFAIS series on research data publication will be held on Thursday, March 12, 2015 as a 90-minute webinar, and provides an overview of the current landscape, identifies challenges, and where we are now on research data discovery.  The discussion continues in Research Data Publication, Part II: The Complexities of Implementation<http://www.nfais.org/index.php?option=com_mc&view=mc&mcid=72&eventId=463029&orgId=nfais> on April 20, 2015, as a full-day hybrid workshop.
