UGA recently adopted a new Research Data Stewardship policy developed by the Research Data Management Advisory Council (RDMAC). This policy focuses on issues of ownership, sharing, and retention of research data in response to federal public access and data management requirements. The council is promoting steps to improve UGA’s services and infrastructure to support research data management, such as the UGA Libraries’ new institutional repository, UGA Open Scholar, and research data management planning consultation services offered through Research and Computational Data Management (RCDM). Join us for this session of Research Live to learn more about this new policy, supporting guidance, and related services and support offerings.
