As Data Management & Curation Lead and co-director of the University Digital Conservancy I coordinate the library's efforts around digital scholarship and research data management, access, and archiving. Prior to this I served as library liaison to the Physics, Astronomy, and Geology departments (2007-2011). My research areas of focus are scientific data curation, citation analysis, information-seeking behavior and web development of user-centered tools to access information.

    Level of curation self-reported by 100 CoreTrustSeal certified repositories (2017-2019)
    (2021-02-10) Johnston, Lisa R; ljohnsto@umn.edu; Johnston, Lisa R; Data Curation Network
    This dataset extracts and makes machine-actionable the responses to the "Level of curation performed" component of the CoreTrustSeal application v01 (2017-2019). The author reviewed 100 applications in pdf file format and compiled the responses into one spreadsheet for further analysis. Additionally, the CTS application instructions for v01 were parsed in order to analyze the completed applications and included here in a spreadsheet.

    A Comprehensive Campus-based Approach to Address the Opportunities and Challenges Posed by Data Intensive Research
    (Association for Computing Machinery, 2019) Wilgenbusch, James C; Baller, Joshua A; Bates, Carla; Bollig, Evan; Johnston, Lisa R; Neuhauser, Claudia
    Faced with escalating expenses related to data storage needs and a capable set of on campus storage service providers, the University of Minnesota (UMN) developed a comprehensive framework to better address current and emerging challenges and opportunities brought by data intensive research. Elements of this framework and the process used to develop it could be applied at other research institutions to advance their efforts to address the challenges they face supporting data intensive science. While approaches may differ slightly, addressing these challenges within our respective universities is critical, and perhaps a prerequisite to building and sustaining partnerships among providers of advanced research computing and fully realizing the value of our data.

    Data Sharing Readiness in Academic Institutions
    (Data Curation Network, 2020-01-15) Johnston, Lisa R; Coburn, Liza
    In 2017, several members of the Data Curation Network authored the Academic Research Libraries (ARL) Data Curation Spec Kit, a survey asking 124 academic research institutions in the United States and Canada to self-assess their data repository and curation services (Hudson-Vitale et al., 2017a). Three years later, institutional support for data sharing is as relevant as ever. Next month, the Association of Public Land Grant Universities (APLU) and the Association of American Universities (AAU) will convene a national summit in Washington, DC to address how public universities may increase public access to their research, particularly in light of funder and journal requirements supporting data reuse and research transparency. So, we wondered, how has the academic landscape for data repository and curation services changed? To answer this question, we used website content analysis – a method that has been used successfully in recent years for examining the broader category of academic library research data services offerings (Yoon and Schultz, 2015; Kouper, Fear, Ishida, Kollen, & WIlliams, 2017) – to better understand data repository services in academic research libraries, building on the 2017 Spec Kit results.

    Data supporting “Data Sharing Readiness in Academic Institutions” Version 1.0
    (2020-01-15) Johnston, Lisa R; Coburn, Liza; ljohnsto@umn.edu; Johnston, Lisa R; University Libraries
    To address how has the academic landscape for data repository and curation services changed we used website content analysis to better understand data repository services in academic research libraries, building on the 2017 ARL Spec Kit for Data Curation (Hudson-Vitale et al., 2017a). Of the 124 ARL institutions we chose to focus on academic institutions, and therefore excluded 10 civic libraries. For each of the remaining 114 ARL institutions we asked four research questions: Do they support data sharing via data repository services? How many datasets did they hold as of January 2020? What digital repository software platform was in use? How do our results compare with the 2017 ARL SPEC Kit data.
