Whether you need assistance with creating a data management plan, training on data management best practices, guidance on depositing your data in a repository, help creating a digital object identifier (DOI) for your research outputs, or instruction on research computing skills, the Library’s Research Data Curation program is here to help.
You can explore data deposited by UC San Diego researchers and affiliates in the Library's research data digital collections. The collections include data from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) Open Data Initiative, Data Science & Engineering Master of Advanced Study (DSE MAS) Capstone Projects, a wide variety of data from Scripps Institution of Oceanography, and much more.
