Wednesday, March 04, 2026
10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Sophia Lafferty-Hess, Hannah Jacobs
Center for Data and Visualization Sciences Workshop Series

Humanists work with and generate various digital media, content and materials (sources) as part of their research. This workshop will introduce practices for humanities scholars to consider and apply throughout the research lifecycle to manage the various electronic files and digital data they generate. Good data management practices pertaining to planning, file organization, documentation, storage and backup, sharing, citation, and preservation will be presented through a humanities lens with discipline-based, concrete examples. While general good data management practices are relevant across disciplines, participants working specifically within the humanities are the intended audience for this workshop. This event is open to non-Duke participants. This workshop is eligible for 2 hours of Graduate School RCR Credit and 200-level faculty and staff RCR.
