Webinars are free of charge and you do not need to be registered with the library. We will send you detailed instructions for connecting to the given webinar by email after the registration.

Do you have files like “Measurements-Edit FINAL_reallyFinal2-new OKthisOne.xlsx”? Have you invested significant time and effort in generating your research data and now wish to make it accessible to others? Are you required to publish your data to meet funder or journal rules? Do you know how to choose a suitable repository, prepare your dataset, and ensure proper publication? If not, this introductory webinar is designed for you.

Who should participate?

This webinar is intended mainly for graduate students and early-career researchers who are dealing with research data while writing theses, scientific articles, or grant proposals. Additionally, newly appointed data stewards might use this as a good starting point. Previous elementary knowledge of the basics covered in the Introduction to Research Data Management webinar is expected. If you have not seen it, we highly recommend you have a look at the latest version recorded on our Moodle.

This workshop will cover practical tips and tricks on dataset organisation (folder structure naming, etc.) and documentation (e.g., ReadMe file) that will ensure other researchers will be able to re-use your data. Following dataset preparation, tips on repository selection will be presented alongside a practical example of dataset publication in Zenodo – a trusted and free-of-charge repository operated by CERN.
