<br>Join ICPSR for Parts II & III of the webinar series titled, “Life of a
Dataset.” The remaining two webcasts will
describe ICPSR’s data management approach to processing and cleaning the data and to building metadata
and tools to ready the data for discovery and dissemination. <br><div class="gmail_quote"><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">Whether you are collecting data, planning on sharing
(depositing) data to meet funding agency requirements, or interested in
repository and archive management, you will find lots of informative content
and guidance. Q&A will be available
during each session.</p><p class="MsoNormal"></p>

the data are reviewed, cleaned, archived, and prepared for dissemination. The
working relationship between the processor and the processing supervisor to
ensure the confidentiality of respondents will be examined. The tools used by
the processor to insure data security and accuracy in processing will be
discussed. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal">This stage in a dataset’s life will relate how the study’s
description is built and the metadata are enriched to aid discovery. We’ll
consider how the codebook and other materials are created, and what final steps
are taken to preserve the digital data in advance of their release. Finally, we
will talk about how the study is released, announced, and disseminated through
the ICPSR Web site. </p><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Registration information regarding this webinar series is also summarized on ICPSR's Announcements page: <a href="http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/support/announcements/2012/12/webinar-series-coming-up-life-of-dataset" target="_blank">http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/support/announcements/2012/12/webinar-series-coming-up-life-of-dataset</a></div>
