Exploring Research Data Management Hardback

Hardback

Description

Research Data Management (RDM) has become a hot professional topic internationally because of changes in scholarship and governmental policies about the sharing of research data.

This book provides an introduction to RDM for librarians and other support professionals. Starting by exploring the nature of research and the importance of data in the research process, the book reviews how RDM has developed over time, what typical research data services are, and how they relate to other research support services.

It considers how a multi-professional support service can be created then examines the decisions that need to be made in designing different types of research data service from local policy creation, training, through to creating a data repository. Exploring Research Data Management is an accessible introduction to RDM with engaging tasks for the reader to follow and build their knowledge.

It will be useful reading for all students studying librarianship and information management, and librarians who are interested in learning more about RDM and developing Research Data Services in their own institution.
