The University of Kansas Libraries and the campus research office will partner with the Greater Western Library Alliance and the Great Plains Network to explore the potential for a shared regional approach to managing research data. The project team will collect and analyze information about regional research data practices at member institutions; develop a two-day regional workshop to consider and discuss issues, policies, and practices related to lifecycle management of research data across disciplines; and develop a plan and a funding strategy for a data management "test bed" within a regional academic consortium.
