UCSB Library’s Research Data Services (RDS) recently became a member of the Data Curation Network (DCN), a group of professionals from U.S. academic institutions and nonprofit data repositories who seek to improve researcher support through their collective expertise around data curation services.
UCSB is now one of 12 DCN partner institutions in the network. Members join by invitation only and must satisfy eligibility criteria.
DCN enables data repositories – places that store and organize data – to better support researchers who are faced with a growing number of requirements to ethically share their research data in ways that make it findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR).
