Exploring Library Support for Data Science

Description

Abstract:
In 2017 Brown University launched its Data Science Initiative (DSI). For the DSI kick-off event, different units on campus were invited to host roundtables with faculty & listen to their ideas for ways to partner with and support their research, teaching, & learning. This poster presents faculty feedback from the University Library (BUL) Data Services roundtable as well as two initiatives that reflect BUL responses to this feedback: 1) a pilot project with Brown’s Instructional Technology Group to support undergraduates who are non-computer science concentrators in a data science course & 2) Software Carpentry (SwC) training for upskilling BUL staff.
