“My background is in the political and social sciences, and I can connect with a lot of the ethical issues, the equality issues, making data sharing genuinely equal here and in other countries – that\u2019s important to me.<\/p>\n

I get a kick out of helping researchers. Working in a library context I was helping a student find an article they needed. Now I can sit down with a researcher and provide reassurance on their data management plan and that\u2019s important too.<\/p>\n

Having enough technical knowledge so that you can understand what\u2019s going on, and also using liaison skills \u2013 I really like that combination.\u00a0 There\u2019s a whole community at the university that is interested in open data, there are all these people who are really excited about it.\u00a0 I\u2019m excited because there\u2019s a community who is excited about the same things I am.\u00a0 It\u2019s good that everyone\u2019s still working out solutions for data sharing; you want to help build these resources, and a culture change.<\/p>\n

But in the social sciences and humanities, we need to recognise we actually have data.\u00a0 There needs to be a default to open, which relies upon a change in culture and policy.\u00a0 We can archive some of these datasets through liaison with young researchers and learning how researchers work.\u00a0 Young researchers are going to be sustaining the effort, but this needs everyone\u2019s participation.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
