International Symposion „The critical role of university Research Data 
Management infrastructure in transforming data to knowledge”
Data managers and librarians meet at the Göttingen State and University Library 
of Lower Saxony to exchange experience on the development of research data 
services.
In order to learn from the experience of other institutions in establishing 
research data management infrastructures and to pass on its own knowledge in 
this area, the eResearch Alliance, a cooperation of the GWDG and the Göttingen 
State and University Library (SUB), is organising an internationally renowned 
symposium on the topic of "The critical role of university Research Data 
Management infrastructure in transforming data to knowledge" from 18 to 20 
March. The symposium is organised in cooperation with the Committee on Data for 
Science and Technology (CODATA), an organization of the International Science 
Council.
Like other universities and libraries worldwide, the SUB offers researchers a 
wide range of services for working with research data. Services already cover a 
broad spectrum of the digital research process, from assistance in writing 
applications and data management plans, the provision of repositories for 
publishing and storing data to the allocation of permanent identifiers for 
authors and works. All these services are operated and developed with partner 
institutions in Göttingen but also regionally, nationally and worldwide. These 
cooperations and the transfer of knowledge with others are the basis for good 
services.
Although all universities worldwide face similar challenges in research data 
management, there currently are no platforms for an organized exchange of 
information on these topics. This gap will now be closed by the planned 
symposium. From March 18th to 20th, experts from all parts of the world will 
exchange experiences and present existing solutions in more than 50 
presentations and keynote speeches. Speakers from all over Europe, but also 
from well-known American universities such Stanford, MIT and Harvard will be 
present to deepen their knowledge and learn from each other at the two days of 
the symposium. This free event is planned as a pre-conference for one of the 
most important international meetings on research data, the 11th Research Data 
Alliance Plenary Meeting, which will take place in Berlin this year.
