6th National Data Service Consortium Workshop
- October 19–21, 2016
- Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Our theme is New Frontiers in Data Discovery: Collaboration with Research Libraries.
This is the sixth in our series of workshops aimed at building a national infrastructure for sharing, publishing, and re-using data. The NDS is an emerging vision for how scientists and researchers across all disciplines can find, reuse, and publish data. It builds on the archiving and sharing efforts already underway within specific communities and institutions and links them together with a common set of tools designed around search, publish, link and reuse capabilities. The NDS is a synergistic activity to the Research Data Alliance (RDA) and strives to provide infrastructure and software implementations, especially for RDA pilots. This fall's workshop's focus is on the role of research libraries and their priorities within a national data strategy context.
Venue: Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center (PSC) and Carnegie Mellon University's (CMU) Software Engineering Institute, Pittsburg, PA
- Specification of value propositions for research libraries as potential goals for the National Data Service
- Identification of synergies and support models between NDS and research libraries
- Identification targeted data services relevant to libraries with potential for development with NDS resources and additional support
