The Centre for Digital Scholarship organises a network event for all datamanagers within Leiden University and the LUMC. Main goal is to get to know each other, learn about the different roles, share best practices and maybe find solutions to common problems.

There is a lot of interest in datamanagement nowadays from different points of view: research quality, open science, reuse of data, big data etc. Leiden University is running a three years programme to implement the data management policy. Many people within the University are involved in data management support for researchers. Some are called datamanagers, others might be data stewards, data engineers or data librarians. Job descriptions, tasks and skills vary from one person to the other, but we all help to improve the quality of data collection, modelling, analysis or access to the data. Are you one of those people? Join us for this informal gathering!

The network event is organised by the Centre for Digital Scholarship (CDS). The datalibrarians at the CDS offer general training and support to researchers, We kindly invite all datamanagement support staff at Leiden University to join us on Monday June 19, 15.00 – 17.00 at the University Library, Witte Singel 27, Leiden.
