SUMMARY:DCC / RDA Europe - Self-assessing Research Data Management and FAIR-enabling Capabilities
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nThe Digital Curation Centre is pleased to announce a professional development opportunity\, co-hosted with RDA Europe\, designed specifically for professionals in research support roles. Our half-day workshop taking place next month will equip you with the skills and knowledge to assess and improve your organisation’s research data management (RDM) and FAIR-enabling capabilities. \nThis interactive workshop will introduce you to the concept of self-assessment\, providing you with practical guidance on how to evaluate your organisations’ capabilities to support RDM and the production and reuse of FAIR data.  Through hands-on activities and real-world scenario discussions\, you will gain essential skills in conducting these assessments and learn how to implement\, interpret\, and use the results to drive organisational improvements. \nWho should attend?\nThis training is highly beneficial for professionals involved in research support roles\, such as:\n\n\nResearch Data Management Professionals\n\n\nLibrarians\n\n\nData Stewards\n\n\nResearch Administrators\n\n\nResearch Technical Professionals\n\n\nSenior Management\n\n\nRegistration and fees\nTo secure your spot\, please visit our Eventbrite page.  We encourage multiple representatives from each organisation to participate and offer reduced rates for group registration. \n\n\nIndividual participant: £275\n\n\nOrganisation rate for two participants: £425\n\n\nOrganisation rate for three participants: £550\n\n\nSpecial LMIC rate available (details on the registration page)\n\n\nWe look forward to helping your organisation improve its research data management and FAIR data capabilities.

SUMMARY:Edinburgh Open Research Conference 2026
DESCRIPTION:Good Research is Open Research – so what’s stopping us from making research more open? Join the conversation at Edinburgh Open Research Conference 2026 \nFull Programme – https://library.ed.ac.uk/research-support/eorc2026/programme \nThis one day conference provides an opportunity for all individuals interested in making research more open and accessible to come together to discuss their challenges\, success stories\, and next steps. \nThe ambitious “Recommendation on Open Science” produced by UNESCO recognises the broad scope and impact of Open Research – not just on knowledge production\, but also on the world at large. Built around the values of Quality and Integrity\, Collective Benefit\, Equity and Fairness\, and Diversity and Inclusion\, the model provides a foundation for a strategic and principled path forward. Over the past year we have begun revamping our action plan and internal model at the University of Edinburgh to reflect this ambitious and expansive scope. \nOur new action plan is more diverse and expansive than ever before\, and our strategies will build upon this new perspective\, taking into account our local context. To celebrate this positive step forward\, this year’s conference will therefore delve into the various values\, principles\, and actions highlighted by UNESCO’s model. \nJoin the conversation in person in 50 George Square\, University of Edinburgh or Online. Our sessions will explore the general principles of Open Research as described in our new action plan\, but also zoom in on specific areas\, as identified within UNESCO’s model. \nTickets can be booked on the Eventbrite pages: \nFor IN-PERSON attendance: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/edinburgh-open-research-conference-2026-in-person-tickets-1985574269089 \nTo join ONLINE: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/edinburgh-open-research-conference-2026-online-tickets-1986986380753

SUMMARY:Tools for Data FAIRification - overcoming barriers in data discoverability and reuse
DESCRIPTION:It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by barriers to making data FAIR\, but when you realise that others have had the same problems AND have solutions\, life feels much better! \nHolly Ranger and the N8 CIR group have organised an online seminar titled “Tools for Data FAIRification – overcoming barriers in data discoverability and reuse” will take place on Tuesday\, 23 June from 13:00–15:00 (BST) with a focus on practical tools and approaches to improve how research data is managed\, shared\, and reused in line with FAIR principles (Findable\, Accessible\, Interoperable\, Reusable). Four separate speakers will share their stories and present the solutions they have found to improve their practices. \nThe programme includes four talks: \n\nStreamlining Data Management Planning – Kryštof Komanec discusses tools like the Data Stewardship Wizard to improve research data management practices.\nMaximising Data Reusability – Matthew Nichols explores methods and tools that enhance the discoverability and usability of environmental datasets.\nAutomated ReadMe Generation – Ali Abdurhman Kelil and Dag-Even Martinsen Torsøe present URGE\, a tool to help efficiently generate dataset documentation.\nElectronic Notebooks – Zuzanna Zagrodzka highlights how digital notebooks support transparency\, reproducibility\, and FAIR research practices.\n\nOverall\, the seminar showcases practical solutions and expert insights aimed at improving data management workflows and enabling better data sharing and reuse.

SUMMARY:ORCID for Researchers webinar
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nThe UK ORCID consortium is running a webinar to promote ORCID more widely across the UK. It is open to all\, so you do not need to be a member of the consortium to attend. Find out why getting a free ORCID iD and populating your ORCID record is key for researchers to get credit for their work. ORCID is a free\, unique\, persistent identifier (PID) for individuals to use as they engage in research\, scholarship\, and innovation activities. Obtaining an ORCID iD and populating your profile helps achieve the vision where all who participate in research\, scholarship\, and innovation are uniquely identified and connected to their contributions across disciplines\, borders\, and time. \nYour ORCID iD and profile can help you save time and get credit for your work in funding\, publishing\, and research reporting workflows. Funding organisations\, publishers\, and research institutions are increasingly requiring or asking for ORCID iDs from researchers. \nWorkshop Content\nIn this workshop\, we will include: \n\nAn overview of the benefits of ORCID for researchers\nHow ORCID can help you save time across the research landscape\nDemonstrate the latest enhancements from ORCID\nShow you how to keep your ORCID record up to date\nAnswer any questions\n\nTarget Audience\nThe target audience includes: \n\nResearchers\nResearch managers\nParticipants in research who produce outputs that can be shared\nAnyone with a role or interest in:\n\nsupporting researchers with impact and dissemination of outputs\nresearch infrastructure and PIDs\nresearcher digital profiles and presence\n\n\n\nWorkshop Details\nThe webinar is free to attend and available to all. It assumes no prior knowledge of ORCID. It will be recorded.
