*About the Webinar*

Big Data is the catch-phrase of the day, and for good reason. It appears
that everything is being digitized and as such, huge data sets are now
suddenly available to researchers and data scientists. But how do they use
all of this data? The idea of having anything we need just a few clicks
away is exciting, but when the data is not created in a way that is easily
searchable and extractable, access is limited. Additionally, there are
issues about ownership, management, preservation, and the rights the
library offering it may or may not have regarding access. This webinar will
discuss these issues and try to find the happy medium between policy and
practicality.

*Agenda*

Introduction
Todd Carpenter, Executive Director, NISO

Amy Nurnberger, Research Data Manager, Center for Digital Research and
Scholarship, Columbia University

Ruth Duerr, Data Stewardship Program Manager, National Snow and Ice Data
