This document discusses building research data management services from a data librarian's perspective. It defines research data management and outlines developing an institutional RDM policy involving researchers, librarians, and IT staff. The author discusses the University of Edinburgh's library-led RDM policy as an example. The document also covers supporting researchers through training, guidance, and tools for data management planning and sharing. It proposes additional library RDM services like data repositories, archiving, and metadata standards expertise. Challenges for librarians expanding into this new domain are also addressed.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Building research data management services at the University of Edinburgh: a data librarian's view
1. Building research data management
services:
a data librarian’s view
Robin Rice
Online Information
London: Nov 21, 2012
2. Overview
• Defining research data management
• Developing a Research Data
Management Policy at your institution
• Researcher vs institutional responsibilities
• Supporting and training researchers
• Other candidates for library-based RDM
services
3. Defining RDM
• An umbrella term to describe all aspects
of planning, organising, documenting,
storing sharing, and preserving data.
• It also takes into account issues such as
data protection and confidentiality.
• It provides a framework that supports
researchers and their data throughout the
course of their research and beyond.
4. University of Edinburgh Research
Data Mgmt Policy
• Passed by Senate in May, 2011
• Library-led: developed by committee led
by Library & Collections Director
• Involved academic champions
• Written by ex-DCC consultant
• Deemed ‘aspirational’
• Complimentary to
funders’ policies
6. Roles & Responsibilities
• Who will support your researchers’
planning?
• Who has responsibility during the research
project? Who has archival responsibility?
• Who has rights in the data?
• Are students considered?
7. Tips for policy development
Know the drivers for your own institution.
Practice the art of persuasion.
How big is your kirk? Seek alliances.
Who is your high-level champion?
Agree a style – mandate or enabling?
Postcard from the future: what will it
achieve?
8. Supporting and training
researchers
• Online guidance for academic staff
• Embedding RDM training into
postgraduate programmes (MANTRA)
• Tailored support for Data Mgmt Plans
(customising DMP Online tool)
• Training librarians & IT staff
• Awareness-raising across
schools and departments
12. Training liaison librarians
• DIY training facilitated by data librarians:
Topics:
• Data management planning
• Documenting & organising data
• Data storage & security
• Ethics & copyright
• Data sharing
13. Other candidates for library-based
RDM services
• Data discovery – portals, catalogues
• Open data repositories
• Archiving and preservation services
• Metadata & standards (curation)
16. Archiving and preservation
services for research data
• Should the institution be doing this?
– EPSRC says so
“Research organisations will ensure that EPSRC-funded research
data is securely preserved for a minimum of 10-years from the
date that any researcher ‘privileged access’ period expires or, if
others have accessed the data, from last date on which access
to the data was requested by a third party.”
• How to do digital preservation: “Know what
you’ve got and keep the bits safe.”
• – Tim Gollins, TNA
17. Metadata & standards (curation)
• Librarians are more interested in (at least
some kinds of) metadata than
researchers.
• Librarians are in a position to bring to light
emerging standards for data types to
researchers and benefits of use.
• Librarians have a natural ‘cross-
disciplinary’ viewpoint.
18. Challenges for Librarians in RDM
• Finding time to pursue new activities
• Developing new kinds of partnerships
• Establishing credibility in a new area of
expertise
• Learning new skills; ‘getting techie’
• Getting hands dirty with unpublished
material
• Adapting rapidly to opportunities

Edinburgh DataShare is an open repository for any research data created by Edinburgh University researchers, based on DSpace. Datasets are discoverable via search engines in order to maximise visibility and impact. Datasets can be licensed using suitable licences such as those from the Open Data Commons. This provides the facility to fulfil funder mandates when data is required to be published openly. The data submission process creates a permanent record, a persistent identifier, access statistics, and a suggested citation for formal attribution upon re-use. There are customisation options for look and feel (e.g. logos) and metadata fields by community or collection.
