Open Scholarship in the Digital Age: Data Initiatives at North Dakota State University

Abstract

In response to the changing needs of students and faculty, the North Dakota State University is developing a new digital scholarship initiative. With a goal of creating a network of services to support researchers in all phases of the digital scholarship lifecycle, this collaborative initiative will incorporate new and existing services and resources within RCA, ITS, and the Library, as well as strengthen partnerships throughout NDSU. This session will define digital scholarship in the context of academia, discuss the trends in higher education that set the stage for digital scholarship, and give an overview of how we are working to create a network of digital scholarship services.Presented at the 2019 Annual Faculty Conference, North Dakota State University, Fargo, N.D. on August 23, 2019.
