Spring into ICPSR for a Bit!

While ICPSR's Perry Building awaits our return, spring continues, the
flowers are out, and ICPSR is blossoming with many bits and bytes to share!

Enjoy Summer. Plan for Fall. The ICPSR Fall Data Fair Begins on September
21!

Save the date! More details for ICPSR’s fully online, five-day Data Fair
will be announced soon. This Data Fair, the sixth of its kind, consists of
4-5 webinars per day focused on all things data. ICPSR staff, ICPSR
Representatives, the ICPSR Council, and special guests come together online
to train and inform. Watch for email
<https://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/content/about/lists/icpsr-announce.html>
and social media communications soon with registration beginning later this
summer.
Plan for Fall 2021 - the ICPSR Biennial Meeting October 6-8, 2021

Another ICPSR Biennial Meeting
<https://www.icpsr.umich.edu/web/pages/membership/or/ormeet/index.html> is
in the works! Block your calendars and plan to make a visit to the
University of Michigan campus in Ann Arbor in 2021. In addition to
beautiful fall foliage, you will enjoy immersion into delivering data
services, data management and curation, all things ICPSR, and a bounty of
networking. More information to come later this year!
The ICPSR Summer Program has Gone Virtual! Still Time to Register!

Based upon actions taken by the University of Michigan and other
institutions to eliminate in-person classroom instruction this summer,
the ICPSR
Summer Program <https://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/sumprog/> has decided
that both of our four-week sessions usually held in Ann Arbor will be
offered online. There is still time to register for the second session
<https://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/content/sumprog/schedule.html#!secondSession>
and several short workshops
<https://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/content/sumprog/schedule.html#!workshops>
!

ICPSR Launches New Repository for COVID-19 Data

ICPSR has created a new archive for data examining the social, behavioral,
public health, and economic impact of the novel coronavirus global
pandemic. The COVID-19 Data Repository
<https://www.openicpsr.org/openicpsr/covid19?utm_source=SM&utm_medium=SM&utm_campaign=Covid-repository-launch>
is a free, self-publishing option for any researcher or journalist who
wants to share data related to COVID-19. The data will be available to any
interested user for secondary analysis. We encourage deposits of data to
help researchers and journalists understand and respond to the pandemic.
2020 Data Resource Page: Coronavirus, Activism, Policing, Census,
Elections, and More

The year 2020 is turning out to be a year unlike any many of us have
experienced in our lives. Keenly aware of major world events (both planned
and unexpected) that will have our data users looking for resources, ICPSR
staff have put together a 2020 Resources
<https://www.icpsr.umich.edu/web/about/cms/2301> list that we will update
throughout the year. If you have any feedback or suggestions, please let us
know at icpsr-help at umich.edu or fill out our submission form
<http://forms.gle/Xk3ki717oDa3F1Yv6> to suggest resources to add to the
list.
Supporting Data Access through Challenging Times

We know that this is a challenging time to continue your work, including
access to ICPSR data if you are off-campus and/or conducting critical
research using ICPSR restricted data
<https://www.icpsr.umich.edu/web/about/cms/2321>. Please note that
member-affiliated MyData accounts may need to be authenticated. If you have
questions or experience problems, please email us at ICPSR-help at umich.edu
Need to create a MyData account? Enjoy this short video developed by the NACDA
Program on Aging <https://www.icpsr.umich.edu/web/pages/NACDA/index.html>
noting that MyData creation is a piece of cake
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43TmY2leceM> and is the same across all of
our projects.
