Attached to data: Working Collaboratively on Research Projects

This is a recording of a webinar, together with slides, for a presentation on Attached to data: Working Collaboratively on Research Projects​ given on Wednesday, April 10th, 2024 as part of the Digital Scholarship Series for researchers at UCT.

Conducting a research project doesn't have to be a lonely journey; many researchers frequently work together to generate new knowledge. Making sure that the right information is used by everyone and making sure it stays original and current is a challenge. We look at a few relevant, collaborative spaces and tools online that can help you work together. After this session, you will never look at files attached to emails the same way again.

The Digital Scholar Series is run out of Digital Library Services at UCT Libraries. It aims to showcase some of the digital practices and tools available to enhance research skills, with an ongoing focus on managing research data efficiently. Topics covered deal with the management of digital materials for research (what some of us call ‘data’) and touch on digital topics throughout the research lifecycle.
