In light of pressing federal regulations, changing norms in different fields, and growing interest in preserving research outcomes, more and more librarians are getting involved in supporting research data management in their institutions. In this session, Vicky Rampin (NYU) will provide a crash course in the core concepts involved in research data management and reproducibility and how these vary across different fields of study, so participants can feel better equipped to support a wide range of researchers.
Vicky Rampin is the Librarian for Research Data Management and Reproducibility and the subject specialist for data science and computer at New York University. Vicky supports researchers of all levels and disciplines in creating well-managed, reproducible scholarship through instruction, consultation, outreach, and infrastructure building. They also teach one course at Pratt SLIS every fall, Data Librarianship and Management. She loves all things open and contributes to a number of open projects as a part of their jobs and in her spare time.
