Dataverse is a software application that enables institutions to host research data repositories. It provides a preservation and archival infrastructure, while researchers can share, keep control of and get recognition for their data through an easy to access web browser interface. Dataverse supports the sharing of research data with a persistent data citation, and data publishing and management workflows with versioning and metadata standards. This session will briefly review the new features in Dataverse 4.0, and proceed to hands-on instruction for personalizing your dataverse and dataset. This will include: permissions, groups and roles, and guestbook. Prerequisite: Create a draft dataverse or dataset prior to this session, and be ready to log into Harvard Dataverse to work in class with your draft dataverse. Please RSVP here
