This event, to be held at St Anne's College, Oxford, will appeal to an audience of arts and humanities researchers; staff from library, information and research organisations; repository managers; data curators, data centre managers and other data professionals; research funding organisations and research networks.
The broad aims of the event will be:
- To examine aspects of Arts and Humanities data that may require a different kind of handling to that given to other disciplines;
- To discuss how needs for support, advocacy, training and infrastructure are being described and met;
- And consequently, to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the current arrangements for Arts and Humanities data curation and sharing, and brainstorm ways forward
Sample presentation titles will include:
- What's so different about Arts and Humanities data?
- Designing and providing support and infrastructure
- Identifying and meeting researcher development needs
A full programme will be available soon; in the meantime, you can register for the event via http://asp.artegis.com/rdmf10
Please note that places are strictly limited to 50, so early registration is recommended.
