What counts as “data” in your field, and what should you actually do with it? In this session, experts from Harvard Library's Open Scholarship and Research Data Services introduce core principles of research data management and demonstrate how thoughtful practices can strengthen every stage of your scholarship.

We will explore the many forms data can take across disciplines, how you might collect, structure, analyze, and store it, and why these choices matter for transparency, accessibility, and long-term impact.

You’ll also learn how Harvard Library can partner with you to:

• discover existing datasets
• organize and document your own collections
• share your research data with others in ways that are ethical, compliant, and citable

This is an Unabridged “Bookends” workshop. Bookends workshops are designed for graduate students, with topics that complement Unabridged’s January library research intensive. More program details on the Unabridged website.
