Many researchers benefit from training and assistance with their data management practices. The release of the Office of Science and Technology Policy's Nelson Memo and the National Institutes of Health's new Data Management and Sharing Policy created opportunities for librarians to engage with researchers regarding their data workflows. Within this environment, we-an interdisciplinary team of librarians and informationists at the University of Michigan (U-M)-recognized an opportunity to develop a series of data workshops that we then taught during the summer of 2023.
The series was primarily aimed at graduate students and early career researchers, with a focus on the disciplines served by the authors in the Health Sciences - Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (HS-STEM) unit of the U-M Library. We identified three topics to focus on: data management plans, organizing and managing data, and sharing data. Workshops on these topics were offered in June, July, and August 2023.
The number of registrants and attendees exceeded our expectations with 497 registrations across the three workshops (174/169/154, respectively), and 178 attendees (79/49/50, respectively). Registrants included faculty, staff, students, and more, and were primarily from the health sciences clinical and academic units. We received a total of 45 evaluations from the three workshops which were very positive. The slides and evaluation forms from each workshop are available through U-M's institutional repository. We developed these workshops at an opportune time on campus and successfully reached many researchers.
许多研究人员受益于数据管理实践方面的培训和协助。科学技术政策办公室的《尼尔森备忘录》以及美国国立卫生研究院新的数据管理与共享政策的发布，为图书馆员就研究人员的数据工作流程与其进行交流创造了机会。在这种环境下，我们——密歇根大学（U-M）的一个由图书馆员和信息专家组成的跨学科团队——认识到有机会开展一系列数据研讨会，并于2023年夏季进行了授课。
该系列研讨会主要面向研究生和早期职业研究人员，重点关注U-M图书馆健康科学 - 科学、技术、工程和数学（HS-STEM）部门的作者所服务的学科。我们确定了三个重点主题：数据管理计划、数据组织与管理以及数据共享。关于这些主题的研讨会分别于2023年6月、7月和8月举办。
注册人数和参会人数超出了我们的预期，三场研讨会共有497人注册（分别为174/169/154人），178人参加（分别为79/49/50人）。注册者包括教师、工作人员、学生等，主要来自健康科学临床和学术单位。我们共收到三场研讨会的45份评价，评价都非常积极。每个研讨会的幻灯片和评价表可通过U-M的机构知识库获取。我们在校园的合适时机开展了这些研讨会，并成功地接触到了许多研究人员。
