4th Digital Curation Workshop: Data Stewardship and Data Curation

LIBER’s Digital Cultural Heritage forum is organising its 4th Digital Curation Workshop at the Staats- und Universitätsbibliothek, Göttingen on 13-14 November 2017.

The theme – Data Stewardship and Data Curation – is on the agenda of both libraries and research teams and a focus area in LIBER’s 2018-2022 Strategic Plan. It covers a broad variety of aspects. For this workshop, three themes have been identified to compare and evaluate experiences in this emerging and rapidly evolving field in order to distil best practices, guidelines and identify areas of future concern.

Three sessions will each combine a paper introducing the topic, a short presenting successes (or failures), and a workshop. The themes are:

– Researcher in Residence programmes
– Re-integrating newly-created knowledge coming out of research projects back into the library
– What is required of a librarian (or a library team) that is tasked with data stewardship activities?
