Preparing for Data Publishing: Standards and Disciplinary Repositories

Research data have value beyond their original purpose and by sharing or "publishing" your data you can support open science, reproducibility, and future innovation. This workshop will explore strategies and best practices for formally publishing your data in a data repository. Topics covered will include new modes of publishing in academia, the use of data and metadata standards to support interoperability and harmonization, an overview of repository options and key features, examples of disciplinary repositories, and data publishing methods to increase the impact of research projects and support the FAIR Guiding Principles (i.e., Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable). Participants will also practice finding and assessing data repositories via a hands-on exercise. This event is open to non-Duke participants. This workshop (GS717.03) is eligible for 2 hours of Graduate School RCR Credit and 200-level faculty and staff RCR. This event is offered virtually. A zoom link will be sent via email to registered participants to join the workshop. The content of the workshop may be recorded. If you are uncomfortable with a recording being published, please contact the instructor at any time prior to the conclusion of the workshop. REGISTER: https://duke.libcal.com/event/10998422
