The University of Guelph has posted a University of Guelph Research Data Management (RDM) Strategy to outline how U of G provides researchers with an environment that enables and supports RDM best practices — a necessary part of research excellence.
The Strategy was developed by a working group in consultation U of G researchers through a survey and meetings with key campus groups. Results of the Fall 2022 U of G Researcher Perspectives survey can be found on the University of Guelph Research Data Management (RDM) Strategy webpage.
The Strategy is not a static document and will evolve over time as RDM practices, tools and technologies change, and it will be regularly reviewed to measure institutional progress in the provision of RDM services to meet our institutional vision statement and the expectations of the Tri-Agencies and other research funders.
The working group will also continue to engage with University stakeholders to improve awareness of RDM supports on campus and gather feedback on researchers’ experiences and needs for RDM support.
We welcome your continued input! Please feel free to share your experiences suggestions and feedback by emailing avpres@uoguelph.ca with the subject line: RDM Strategy Input.
