The Role Of Interdisciplinary Gis And Data Curation Librarians In Enhancing Authentic Scientific Research In The Classroom, Benjamin D. Branch, Michael Fosmire
The Role Of Interdisciplinary Gis And Data Curation Librarians In Enhancing Authentic Scientific Research In The Classroom, Benjamin D. Branch, Michael Fosmire
Libraries Faculty and Staff Presentations
Data science is a recently evolved area of scientific inquiry, where data, often collected by others, is analyzed by independent investigators to draw new conclusions. As such, data literacy needs to be incorporated into authentic research activities. The earth sciences in particular have a trove of data that resides in national data centers as well as individual investigators’ labs, which can be repurposed to provide the inputs for students to make their own inquiries into the data. With the amount of data available, students can make more substantive conclusions than if relying just on data they’ve collected themselves.
Purdue University Research Repository: A Dataset Solution, Courtney E. Matthews
Purdue University Research Repository: A Dataset Solution, Courtney E. Matthews
Libraries Faculty and Staff Presentations
The Purdue University Research Repository (PURR) is the free, online research data collaboration platform and data management service solution for Purdue researchers made possible through a partnership of the Purdue University Libraries, the Office of Vice-President Research, and Information Technology at Purdue. PURR provides researchers with a virtual project collaboration space, the ability to issue dataset publications with unique Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs), while meeting the challenges of dataset accessibility and preservation. In doing so PURR exemplifies the continued role of Libraries in the research life-cycle of the university by providing a tool and a suite of services that ensure …
Government Documents On Rare Earth Minerals, Bert Chapman
Government Documents On Rare Earth Minerals, Bert Chapman
Libraries Faculty and Staff Presentations
Rare earth minerals contain unique chemical and physical properties such as lanthanum, are found in small concentrations, need extensive precise processes to separate, and are critical components of modern technologies such as laser guidance systems, personal electronics such as Blackberries, and satellites. The U.S. has some rare earth resources, but is heavily dependent on access to them from from Afghanistan, Bolivia, and China. Losing access to these resources would have significant economic, military, and political implications. This presentation will highlight government information resources on rare earth minerals from agencies such as the Department of Energy (DOE), Department of Defense (DOD), …
Purr: A Research Data Curation Service Model Using Hubzero, Courtney E. Matthews, Michael Witt
Purr: A Research Data Curation Service Model Using Hubzero, Courtney E. Matthews, Michael Witt
Libraries Faculty and Staff Presentations
The Purdue University Research Repository (PURR, http://research.hub.purdue.edu) uses HUBzero to provide a research collaboration and data management solution for campus researchers. The National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, and other funding agencies have begun requiring that researchers describe in their grant proposals how they will manage and share the data that will be produced in their research. Purdue researchers can include PURR in their data management plans, invite collaborators to work with them in a private projects on PURR, and publish datasets that can be cited using Digital Object Identifiers (DOI). This presentation will explore Purdue’s data …
Purdue Libraries Publishing Services: The Domino Effect Of Repository-Based Publishing, Outreach, And Promotion, David A. Scherer Jr
Purdue Libraries Publishing Services: The Domino Effect Of Repository-Based Publishing, Outreach, And Promotion, David A. Scherer Jr
Libraries Faculty and Staff Presentations
Technical reports have always posed problems for libraries and librarians. They are often bibliographically inconsistent, difficult to source, and published to varying standards of quality. In some fields, these reports are also large in number and central in importance. In many cases, technical reports are just one of many collections that are tied to a particular research center or group. These research centers or groups may also produce data papers, hosted conference proceedings, and other report series, which may also suffer from many of the same issues facing technical reports. In several situations these research centers and groups are unaware …
Iso 16363: Trustworthy Digital Repository Certification In Practice, Michael Witt, Matthew Kroll, David Minor, Bernie Reilly
Iso 16363: Trustworthy Digital Repository Certification In Practice, Michael Witt, Matthew Kroll, David Minor, Bernie Reilly
Libraries Faculty and Staff Presentations
Three perspectives are presented from the United States on the new ISO 16363 certification process from a repository that is currently preparing to undergo an audit (Purdue University), a repository that has recently been certified as a trustworthy digital repository (Chronopolis Digital Preservation Network, University of California, San Diego), and an auditor (Center for Research Libraries). After a concise overview of the certification process, each panelist will offer insights and practical tips based on their experience and participate in a moderated discussion that includes questions and comments from the audience.
Research Data Curation, Discovery, And Dissemination, D. Scott Brandt
Research Data Curation, Discovery, And Dissemination, D. Scott Brandt
Libraries Faculty and Staff Presentations
Presents Purdue Libraries’s work with the Data Curation Profiles, and how they’ve helped leverage collaborations with researchers. This includes working heavily in Agricultural, Science and Engineering from which examples are drawn. The topic of sharing research outputs is described in the framework of the changing scholarly communication environment. Presented as video conference for University of Oklahoma School of Library and Information Science's "E-Science and Data Curation Symposium." July 13, 2012
NOTE: This presentation is a slightly revised version of Brandt, D. Scott. "Data Curation as a Form of Collaborative Research." American Libraries Association 2012 Annual Conference & Exhibition, "Transforming our …
Databib: An Online Bibliography Of Research Data Repositories, Michael Witt
Databib: An Online Bibliography Of Research Data Repositories, Michael Witt
Libraries Faculty and Staff Presentations
With support from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, the libraries of Purdue and Pennsylvania State University have collaborated to create Databib: an online, annotated bibliography of research data repositories. A number of academic and research libraries are taking an active role in data curation, applying library science principles to help address the data deluge. Librarians are helping researchers formulate funder-required data plans, adapting library practice to help organize and describe research datasets, developing data collections and data repositories, performing digital preservation, and teaching data literacy. Librarians are in a good position to provide these services; unfortunately, there is …
