Technological advances and the rise of collaborative,
interdisciplinary approaches have changed the practice of research.
The 21st century researcher not only faces the challenge of
managing increasingly complex datasets, but also new data sharing
requirements from funders and journals. Success in today's research
enterprise requires an understanding of how to work effectively
with data, yet most researchers have never had any formal training
in data management. Libraries have begun developing services and
programs to help researchers meet the demands of the data-driven
research enterprise, giving librarians exciting new opportunities
to use their expertise and skills. The Medical Library Association
Guide to Data Management for Librarians highlights the many ways
that librarians are addressing researchers' changing needs at a
variety of institutions, including academic, hospital, and
government libraries. Each chapter ends with "pearls of wisdom," a
bulleted list of 5-10 takeaway messages from the chapter that will
help readers quickly put the ideas from the chapter into practice.
From theoretical foundations to practical applications, this book
provides a background for librarians who are new to data management
as well as new ideas and approaches for experienced data
librarians.
