Portage Network Website Launched

The Portage Network has just launched a website that will support the various components and communities central to the shared stewardship of research data in Canada.

The Portage Network is dedicated to:

• developing a national research data culture;
• fostering a community of practice for research data; and
• building national research data services and infrastructure.

Launched in 2014 by the Canadian Association of Research Libraries, Portage works within the library community to coordinate expertise, services, and technology in research data management, seeking to collaborate with other research data management stakeholders.  University of Alberta Libraries is a key partner in the development and maintenance of the DMP Assistant tool for preparing data management plans.
