SLIDE 7

Strategies

Counter the perception that “data management doesn’t apply to me.” Establish information management as an essential personal, professional, and scholarly skill set. Start with practices for everyday situations that can then be “scaled up” to research projects and systemic workflows.

SLIDE 8

Tactics

Integrate data literacy and data management education into our information literacy curriculum. Provide R&I librarians with the tools to teach their students and faculty basic data management concepts. Balance the systematic with the serendipitous.
