Digital Scholar Series

Recordings and slides from the Digital Scholar Series sessions run out of Digital Library Services at UCT Libraries (2024 - 2025). The primary focus of these sessions are the beginning stages of the research process, such as data management plans (DMPs) and best practices for efficiently capturing and managing research data. Other 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.
