Best Practice Data Guidelines for Researchers
As a researcher, you are responsible for efficiently and responsibly carrying out your research and for communicating the results of research effectively. Good data management can save you time and give you peace of mind that your data is not at risk. If you are not subject to commercial or ethical restrictions, you can also increase your research profile by including data outputs as part of your dissemination strategy.
HDR RESEARCH TOOLKIT
This Toolkit will assist you to navigate the Library's Learning Services as you commence your candidature. It provides an introduction to the services and support available and the skills and tools that will assist you during your research journey.
Use the Toolkit to:
- See how the library can help with borrowing, inter-library loans, workshops and consultations, research data management and publishing
- Research like an expert using top tips and advanced search techniques
- Explore digital tools for research that primarily assist in organising information and ideas and data collection
