Whether you're just beginning your research journey or advancing toward new milestones, the Library Research Services team is here to guide and support you every step of the way. As the new academic year begins, the team is delighted to announce the first of its researcher events.
Good Practices for Research Data Management
Overview of Event
Effective Research Data Management (RDM) has increasingly become a feature of funding applications and publishing agreements. Aside from that, it’s a practice that can save a researcher a lot of stress: ensuring that documents are securely backed up and that all the necessary tools for the job are kept within easy reach.
No matter what your discipline: you have research data. In this session, we’ll talk tips for staying organised, keeping on top of security, and making sure data is looked after beyond the project. Questions? Concerns? Bring them along.
Topics covered:
- Creating a Data Management Plan (DMP)
- Good practice for data security
- File-naming and organisation
- Long-term sharing and stewardship
- Guides, resources and supports
Time & Venue: Thursday, 02nd October 2025, 14.00 - 16.00, GW402
