In this webinar, OCLC Research RLG Partnership European Director John MacColl provided an overview of a new activity related to data curation that OCLC Research recently kicked off in support of the RLG Partnership, focusing on a joint OCLC Research-LIBER series of case studies in data curation needs in the humanities and social sciences in a range of university libraries in Europe, Australia and North America. He also requested input from RLG Partners on this project, and on data curation roles for libraries in general, throughout the presentation. This webinar was one of three amplified sessions that were livecast from the 2010 Annual RLG Partnership Meeting.
