Data Conversations Series – Talking Historical Data with Dr Kieran Fitzpatrick (Moore Institute) and Dr Ali Hasnain (Insight Centre)

Open Scholarship heralds radical changes for research of all kinds. These include the mainstreaming of innovative cross-disciplinary data-reuse, an emphasis on transparency and reproducibility, concerns for preservation and long-term usability of data and the rise of new forms of scholarly communication including data publication and the normalisation of open access publishing.  In anticipation of these changes, the library kicks off a series of Data Conversations, informal events where current Data and Data Management issues are discussed. These Conversations are informal events – a mixture of short talks and audience and panel discussions aimed at bringing our researcher community together in a relaxed and friendly environment to talk all things ‘Data’. The Conversations also provide an opportunity for participants to meet researchers from different disciplines and at different career stages, together with the support personnel who can help them with their Research Data Management Plans.
