Realities of Academic Data Sharing (RADS) Site Visit
The Realities of Academic Data Sharing (RADS) study is a collaborative research project funded by IMLS and undertaken by 12 universities across the US. This study focuses on understanding the costs and practices associated with providing research data management and sharing infrastructure. Now in its third phase, RADS builds on earlier work to identify strategic areas for institutional investment in data management and sharing.
This day-long event will share the outcomes of RADS Phase 2 with a wide range of campus stakeholders, including those who may not have been directly involved in the research project, contextualize the university's institutional data report, facilitate or enhance cross-unit connection, spark future planning conversations, and build momentum for ongoing engagement.
