Publisher's Synopsis
Librarians and academic data specialists support the research data needs of faculty and students through conventional services such as consultations and workshops, but also increasingly by cultivating a data culture that supports the diverse data needs of their communities. The shift toward data-related research as a driver of social capital is a critical opportunity to reassess data literacy training and build a local scholarly culture around data.
In five parts, Data Culture in Academic Libraries: A Practical Guide to Building Communities, Partnerships, and Collaborations can help you foster an institutional culture that favors the curation, creation, and wider use of datasets.
- Data at all Levels
- Data Services and Instruction
