How ZivaHub can help you share and publish your thesis data - Digital Scholar Series Online
Is it the end of your research project and time to hand in your thesis? Do you have some data that you have gathered and analysed that you need to share as part of your thesis submission? In this session we look at how UCT's Open Data repository, ZivaHub, can assist you with sharing and publishing your data. Do you need to get a DOI to put in your manuscript? Do you need to have your examiners access the data privately before publishing? Do you need to make sure that the data is only published at a later date? After this session, publishing your data will be easier than doing your bibliography.

The Digital Library Services (DLS) department of UCT Libraries will be continuing their Digital Scholar Series in 2022. Presenters from DLS will showcase some of the practises and tools available to enhance your research skills, with an ongoing focus on managing your research data efficiently.
These sessions are open to all postgraduate researchers and staff working within any field of study at UCT. The topics covered deal with the management of digital materials for research (what some of us call ‘data’) and touch on digital topics throughout the research lifecycle. The sessions are aimed at making your digital scholarship more efficient, so that your data gives you less hassle and you have more time to focus on your teaching, learning and research. Our primary focus in the second half of the year will be on topics covering the middle and later stages of the research process, such as updating your Data Management Plan, cleaning your data, as well as best practices for sharing - highlighting work with sensitive data and using licences for publishing.
After registering for the event, you will receive an email with a calendar invite attached. All sessions will start at 1 PM with the topics and dates listed below. The sessions will be hosted on MS Teams and will last 45 minutes, with an extra 15 minutes for questions or discussion. DLS staff will be present to moderate the chat and to help answer your questions as they come up.
