AGU/ESIP Data Management Training Crowdsourcing Event for Enabling FAIR Data - Feb 22nd

Please take a moment to read the following message from our colleagues at AGU regarding an invitation to the AGU/ESIP Data Management Training Crowdsourcing Event for Enabling FAIR Data on February 22nd.

All,

The Enabling FAIR Data project shepherded by the American Geophysical Union’s (AGU) Data Department and the Research Data Alliance (RDA), and the ESIP Federation’s Data Management Training (DMT) Working Group are planning unique crowdsourcing opportunities.  In these crowdsourcing events, researchers and the research data community will learn more about the kinds of educational resources that are currently available to teach and  learn about research data management (RDM) skills, methods, and practices.  

The first crowdsourcing event is scheduled for Thursday, February 22nd from 9 am – 10:15 am PST / 12 noon – 1:15 pm EST / 17:00 UTC using ESIP’s GoTo Meeting / Webinar platform.  Call-in details can be found on the ESIP Telecon website at:  http://www.esipfed.org/telecons under the “DMT Clearinghouse Crowdsource” entry.  

In this first crowdsourcing event, we’ll be searching for educational resources to add to the DMT Clearinghouse that help enable researchers make their data FAIR (Findable - Accessible – Interoperable – Reusable) per the description in the following seminal article:  https://www.nature.com/articles/sdata201618 (the Australian National Data Service also has created an excellent webinar series on the FAIR principles that is described in the DMT Clearinghouse at the following location: http://dmtclearinghouse.esipfed.org/node/9907).  

Stay tuned for the second event to be scheduled in March where we plan to map the resources that we’ve found to the FAIR principles, and add them to the DMT Clearinghouse.   

The goals of the planned event  are to:

· Develop awareness of the FAIR Data Principles, the Enabling FAIR Data project, and the Data Management Training Clearinghouse

· Contribute  to the inventory of educational resources related to RDM with a focus on Enabling the FAIR data principles, and

· Generate broader, engaged participation for both projects

Researchers, Librarians, Teaching Data Professionals and Educators from all science subject domains are welcome.   Join us for one or both events!  You can register for this event at:  Registration Form for DMT Clearinghouse Crowdsource Event -Feb. 22nd, 2018.

For more information, please contact session organizers  Nancy Hoebelheinrich (nhoebel@kmotifs.com), and Raleigh Martin (ramartin@nsf.gov). 

Hope you can join us!
