The University Library, Nord University invites all researchers (including project leaders, postdocs, PhDs and students doing research work) to the opportunity of setting aside two hours for actively working on research data management for their respective projects. The participants will use the time to carry out an activity of their choice necessary for managing research data in accordance with FAIR principles. Examples of such an activity:
- Characterizing the data – What kind of data will be produced, which file formats can be used, how much will be the volume of the data, which ethical and/or legal considerations are necessary etc.
- Writing a data management plan (DMP)
- Preparing a logical folder structure and providing informative filenames
- Writing read-me files or metadata files
- Preparing datasets for archiving.
Visit the research data webpages for more information on managing your research data.
