Are you an information specialist (e.g., librarian) with experience in SSH research data management (RDM)? Then this workshop might interest you!

Tampere University and the CSC – IT Center for Science are looking for volunteers to take part in a study for developing the DARIAH-FI (https://www.dariah.fi/) research infrastructure. The purpose of the study is to (1) understand the RDM practices of SSH scholars that conduct data-intensive research and work with social media data and/or visual materials(*); (2) comprehend how these practices are currently supported; and (3) identify how can we better support this aspect of the digital humanities and computational social sciences research process.

If you’re interested, please fill the form at this link https://forms.office.com/e/GrfPA5M444 and you will be contacted by one of the members of the research team via email with more information about the study. Sign up only if you are available on the date of the workshop. Recruitment will be open until reaching the desired number of participants. As a participant in the study, you will have the opportunity to discuss RDM with peers and contribute to the development of best practices and support services in Finland.

The workshop (in English) will take place on Zoom on Thu. 6.6. from 10-12. If you have any questions, you can contact directly the workshop orgainsers Anna Sendra Toset (anna.sendratoset@tuni.fi) or Minna Ahokas at CSC (minna.ahokas@csc.fi).
