Applying Data Management Strategies: A Showcase of Data Management Projects

 

Medical librarians in a variety of settings have opportunities to provide guidance and help with data management. This webinar, sponsored by the Medical Informatics Section, will showcase data management projects at three different libraries. The librarians will share their thoughts on developing services and opportunities and challenges for librarians interested in working with data management. Subjects include: Health Care Informatics; Technology/Systems; Data Management.

Participants will learn of current data or data management projects and services being offered from health sciences librarians working in these areas. It is anticipated that these examples could assist librarians considering ways to become more involved in data management topics. A question and answer period will follow the speakers.
