October 17, 2013 @ Robert E. Kennedy Library, Data Studio, California Polytechnic State University. New mandates, announcements, memos, and requirements are emerging that encourage better data management, data sharing, and data preservation. In this presentation, data curation specialist Carly Strasser, PhD, offers a lay of the data management land by discussing recent events, resources, and new directions for data stewardship.

Many
(most?)
researchers…
are
not
taught
data
management
are
not
effectively
managing
or
organizing
their
data
don’t
share
data
publicly
or
store
it
in
an
archive
aren’t
convinced
they
should
share
data
don’t
know
about
tools
that
can
help
them

5. • Cost
• Confusion
about
standards
• Lack
of
training
• Fear
of
lost
rights
or
benefits
• No
incentives

There
is
a
social
contract
of
science:
we
have
an
obligation
to
ensure
dissemination,
validation,
&
advancement.
To
not
do
so
is
science
malpractice.

“Federal

development
(more

million
in

must
have
clear
and
coordinated
