Webinar - Exploring Past, Present, and Future Outcomes of the RDA Libraries for Research Data (L4RD) Interest Group - 28 June 2021

 

Research Data have become a primary research asset that often requires continued access in the dynamic environment of mobile researchers, volatile repositories, transient products and short-lived standards. Libraries have looked after written research assets for centuries and now tackle the challenge of adapting their function to making data reliably accessible and re-usable.
