Because good research needs good data

International Digital Curation Conference (IDCC)

#idcc13

IDCC brings together those who create and manage data and information, those who use it and those who research and teach about curation processes. 

Our view of ‘data’ is a broad one – video games and virtual worlds are of just as much interest as data from laboratory instruments or field observation. Whether the information originates in the arts, humanities, social or experimental sciences the issues faced are cross-disciplinary.

IDCC brings together those who create information, those who curate and manage it, those who use it and those who research and teach about curation processes.
 

This year’s IDCC was held jointly by the UK Digital Curation Centre and the Graduate School of Library and Information Science, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in partnership with the Coalition for Networked Information (CNI).
