Video rewind: The 2019 ICPSR Biennial Meeting
<https://youtu.be/d2g7NUTWU8o>
A biennial gathering to remember
In October, over 170 attendees from 86 institutions networked and explored
a wealth of data resources at the action-packed 2019 ICPSR Biennial Meeting
<https://youtu.be/te6H3-DFZZ0>. This year’s theme was “Data Storytelling."
Besides attending the many engaging workshops, we tuned in to a great keynote
message <https://youtu.be/NJwG13SE2Gg> from Harvard Economist *Raj Chetty*,
who talked about “Improving Equality of Opportunity in America: New
Insights from Big Data.” Also, catch a glimpse
<https://youtu.be/N93HJeky3Q8> of some of our community's stars who stopped
by the red carpet for some fun exchanges with ICPSR’s *Bianca Monzon*,
*Kil-Sang
Kim,* and *Abay Israel*. Another meeting highlight came as we celebrated
the work of 2019 Miller Award winners *Judith Torney-Purta*, Professor
Emerita of Developmental Science and Educational Psychology at the
University of Maryland, and *Raj Chetty*, a Professor of Economics at
Harvard University; and 2019 Flanigan Award winner (and ICPSR rep and
former Council member) *Ron Nakao*, a Social Science Data Librarian and
Economics Librarian at Stanford. Meeting recordings and presentation slides
are being uploaded as available on our 2019 ICPSR Biennial Meeting playlist

In other news, we were thrilled to announce a new distinction for ICPSR:
CoreTrustSeal <http://bit.ly/2XAPAKA> Certification! Acquiring
CoreTrustSeal certification makes transparent to our stakeholders,
including funding agencies now encouraging certification, the
trustworthiness of our repository.
We also announced some new data projects, including the Child and Family
Data Archive <http://bit.ly/2CR4XFn>, the College and Beyond II
<http://bit.ly/2O6T8RM> project, and the important work of ICPSR
researchers *Libby Hemphill*, *Amy Pienta*, *Dharma Akmon*, and others to
secure a $1 million in grant for groundbreaking research on data curation
<http://bit.ly/2O6h07Y>. Those are just some of the amazing headlines in
this edition of the ICPSR Bulletin Newsletter. Scroll down for so much more
good news about data stewardship.
Thanks for reading!
