Our most recent project in this program, “Supporting Big Data Research,” focused specifically on the rapidly emerging use of big data in research across disciplines and fields. As part of our study, we partnered with librarians from more than 20 colleges and universities, who then conducted over 200 interviews with faculty. These interviews provided insights into the research methodologies and support needs of researchers working across a wide range of disciplines. This report provides a detailed account of how big data research is pursued in academic contexts, focusing on identifying typical methodologies, workflows, outputs, and challenges big data researchers face. Full details and actionable recommendations for stakeholders are offered in the body of the report, which offers guidance to universities, funders, and others interested in improving institutional capacities and fostering intellectual climates to better support big data research.}, journal={[]}, institution={Ithaka S\mathplusR}, author={Ruediger, Dylan and Atwood, Thea and Bharti, Neelam and Briones, Bryan and Campbell, Patrick and Carey, Paula and Castillo, Daniel and Ciccone, Karen and Cook, Cameron and Cooper, Danielle and et al.}, year={2021}, month={Dec} } @article{ivey_ciccone_vickery_2021, title={Big Data Research Practices and Needs at North Carolina State University: An Ithaka S+R Local Report}, url={https://osf.io/n9a4j/}, DOI={10.17605/OSF.IO/N9A4J}, journal={Open Science Framework}, publisher={Open Science Framework}, author={Ivey, Susan and Ciccone, Karen and Vickery, John}, year={2021} } @book{ivey_koshoffer_sneff_wang_2020, title={Confocal Microscopy Data Curation Primer}, url={http://hdl.handle.net/11299/210206.}, note={Retrieved from the University of Minnesota Digital Conservancy,}, journal={Data Curation Network}, author={Ivey, Susan and Koshoffer, Amy and Sneff, Gretchen and Wang, Huajin}, year={2020}, month={Jan} } @inbook{ivey_emanuel_2018, title={16.

While there is not a standard set of services for these RDM programs, some institutions, particularly those with repositories that accept data deposits, provide data curation services as a way to add value to research data and help make data more accessible and reusable. Stakeholder communities within the field, such as the Data Curation Network (DCN), are also developing guidelines, procedures, and best practices to support and expand data curation practices. DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT This paper examines the data curation activities defined by the DCN, and describes an activity undertaken by library staff at Duke University and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to create a structured model of these tasks to more easily conceptualize and communicate data curation within these two institutional settings. The purpose of this paper is to describe how this model provided a basis for the implementation and expansion of data curation services at each institution and concludes with overall lessons learned. NEXT STEPS As we develop our services, libraries have an opportunity to make the often-invisible work of curation more transparent. This paper aims to provide a point of reference for other libraries as they consider how to scale up their data curation programs as well as contribute to discussions around prioritization of services, program assessment, and communication with stakeholders.}, publisher={Center for Open Science}, author={Lafferty-Hess, Sophia and Rudder, Julie and Downey, Moira and Ivey, Susan and Darragh, Jen}, year={2018}, month={May} } @article{eyman_ball_boggs_booher_burnside_dewitt_zdenek_2016, title={Access/ibility: Access and Usability for Digital Publishing}, journal={20 Years of Kairos: A Journal of Rhetoric, Teaching, and Pedagogy Anniversary Issue}, author={Eyman, D. and Ball, C.E. and Boggs, J. and Booher, A.K. and Burnside, E. and DeWitt, S.L. and Zdenek, S.}, year={2016} } @article{riley-huff_herrera_ivey_harry_2016, title={Crowdfunding in libraries, archives and museums}, volume={29}, url={https://doi.org/10.1108/BL-03-2016-0014}, DOI={10.1108/BL-03-2016-0014}, abstractNote={Purpose This paper aims to examine the fundraising strategy known as crowdfunding because it applies to galleries, libraries, archives and museums (GLAM) and to share a crowdfunding case study experience. Design/methodology/approach A rich literature review provides the basis for understanding the central issues related to crowdfunding. Survey data provides information about the perception and experiences of other GLAM organizations with crowdfunding, and a case study shares an experience with the fundraising method. Findings Some GLAM organizations are attempting crowdfunding projects with varied levels of success, whereas others remain unsure but curious. The case study shares one academic library’s direct experience with crowdfunding. Research limitations/implications There is little research currently available related to library use of crowdfunding. Practical implications This paper provides a resource and research starting point for GLAM organizations interested in the crowdfunding model. Originality/value In a comprehensive manner, this article provides much needed research on the current state of crowdfunding as it pertains to GLAM organizations.}, number={ue: 2}, journal={The Bottom Line}, author={Riley-Huff, Debra A. and Herrera, Kevin and Ivey, Susan and Harry, Tina}, year={2016}, pages={67–85,} } @article{ivey_2013, title={The Growing Digital Civil War Archive at the University of Mississippi}, volume={32}, url={https://aquila.usm.edu/theprimarysource/vol32/iss2/4}, DOI={10.18785/ps.3202.04}, abstractNote={In 2011, the University of Mississippi’s Archives and Special Collections began an ongoing project to digitize a portion of materials related to the Civil War. This started as a means of participating in the Association of Southeastern Research Libraries’ (ASERL’s) collaborative digitization project, Civil War in the American South, which was established to celebrate the sesquicentennial of the American Civil War. ASERL’s project provides a single access point for Civil War materials from multiple repositories, and currently includes over 10,000 items from 30 libraries. In addition to providing greater access to the University’s materials via the ASERL’s portal, the creation of the University of Mississippi’s Digital Civil War Archive provides a space to present various materials from multiple collections that are all related to the subject of the American Civil War. This provides an opportunity for greater discoverability and scholarship both near to and far from the library. In conjunction with the Civil War subject guide, which links to the Digital Civil War Archive, the library provides rich, cross-referencing tools for those interested in Mississippi and the Civil War. In addition to providing a brief history of UM’s Civil War Digital Collection, this paper will document the process of identification, selection, and project management of materials to be added in 2014 to the Digital Civil War Archive, completed by Jennifer Ford (Head, Archives and Special Collection at University of Mississippi) and Susan Ivey (Digital Initiatives Librarian, University of Mississippi and author of this paper) in December 2013.}, number={2 , Article 4}, journal={The Primary Source}, author={Ivey, Susan}, year={2013} }
