William Kilbride, Executive Director, Digital Preservation Coalition will chair the next ALPSP seminar:
Standing on the Digits of Giants: Research data, preservation and innovation
Tuesday 8 March, London (full day seminar)
#alpspdata
Speaker focus:
Josh Brown, ORCiD, Regional Director, Europe
Recognition Across the Entire Lifecycle: Identifying contributions to research
Join us to hear Josh Brown speak about how the use of identifiers for authors is well established, and helps to ensure accurate attribution and reward. Recent innovations mean that this approach can be applied across the entire research lifecycle. Hitherto much less visible contributions to research, such as software, data visualisation and peer review, can be brought into the light as first-class research activities, taking their rightful place alongside authorship as valued contributions to the health and progress of research.
Speaker focus:
Professor Robert Gurney OBE, Professor of Earth Observation Science, University of Reading
Science of the (near) Future: Its power and requirements
Global environmental change is one of the most pervasive concerns of the 21st century. Scientists throughout the world are undertaking research to determine the nature and extent of these changes, and their impacts on humans and the environment. This research increasingly requires integrating large amounts of diverse data across scientific disciplines to deliver the policy-relevant and decision-focused knowledge that societies require to respond and adapt to global environmental change and extreme hazards, to manage natural resources responsibly, to grow our economies, and to limit or even escape the effects of poverty. To carry out this research, data need to be discoverable, accessible, usable, curated and preserved for the long-term.
This full day event will examine emerging trends and focus on access being an ongoing process rather than a one-time event. It is produced in association with the Digital Preservation Coalition.
Why attend? The practicalities associated with publishing data are increasing in importance for everyone involved in scholarly communications. This seminar is focussed on providing attendees with greater insight into the latest trends associated with the digital research record, why it's important to engage with this issue and practical applications, enabling attendees to develop relevant policies and support for their authors, editors and other clients. The event will also aim to increase knowledge and access to networks that will support scenario-planning, product development and discussion going forward.
Who should attend: Publishers (spanning editorial, production and marketing staff) research managers, specialists in digital preservation, repository managers, research funders and policy makers, learned society representatives and research librarians and vendors.
