Journal Club: Research Data Management
Thursday, December 10, 2015
9:00 PM Eastern / 6:00 PM Pacific

Breaking News: Authors Alisa Surkis (@asurkis) and Kevin Read (@ReadKev) will join us during the discussion! 

We're having a Journal Club discussion Thursday! The article I selected is:

Surkis A, Read K. Research data management. J Med Libr Assoc. 2015 Jul;103(3):154-6. doi: 10.3163/1536-5050.103.3.011. PubMed PMID: 26213510; PubMed Central PMCID: PMC4511058. Available at: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26213510.

There’s a lot to consider and discuss in just a few pages!

Researchers are starting to care about data and data collection, especially since funding could be reliant on a data management plan. Should libraries care about data management? What can libraries do to get started? Have you started to support data management within your institution? Are there any challenges you’ve come across and advice you can share with others?

Emerging roles: Informationist and beyond

Edit: Transcript available at http://bit.ly/P09hkv 

This Thursday, August 9 2012 at 6pm Pacific/9 Eastern join us for the #medlibs Twitter chat about emerging roles for medical librarians.

Are you one of the recipients of the new NLM Informationist Supplement Grants? We especially want to hear from you! How were you involved in the project design and application process? How will this fit into your existing workflow or will things be changing for your job? What continuing education and/or other training beyond your MLS/MLIS/MSIS are you bringing to the table? What advice do you have for other medical librarians who are interested in pursuing similar opportunities at their institutions?

What other emerging roles are we participating in out there? Let's network and learn from each other, see you Thursday night online!
