Описание: Making Analog Data Accessible: Preserving data of scientific and cultural importance at two institutions

The live webinar of this recording was April 18, 2024 and organized by ACRL's Science and Technology Section's Data Curation and Assessment Committee.

Amanda Bielskas is the Director of the Science, Engineering, & Social Sciences Libraries at Columbia University. She works with material from the Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO), where Technical Reports are a set of nearly 300 scientific reports dating from 1949 to 2003. Bielskas will provide an overview of the process of digitizing, cataloging, preserving, and making this hidden collection discoverable.

Sandi Caldrone is the Assistant Professor, University Library Research Data Librarian at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Caldrone will provide a brief overview of the process of finding, combining, cleaning, and publishing the data for the Morrow Plots, America's longest running agricultural experiment, which have been producing data since 1888, and the team of information professionals who are continuing this work.
