[LTER-im] website content

[Amber E Budden]

Hi Susanne, others

I just wanted to follow up on Matt’s comment about the Skillbuilding Hub in GitHub. I have previously talked with Margaret O’Brien about using this resource and augmenting the best practices with those that are specific to the LTER community. We have worked to make sure that there is appropriate citation and logo placement of contributing groups to make this a community resource. As Matt mentioned, the resources there have been created from community submissions (albeit from DataONE sponsored workshops) and we are starting to ingest content that is too small to warrant being indexing in the DMTclearinghouse as a stand alone ‘lessons’.

Happy to talk about this more,
Amber

EDI already lists the DataOne data management resources on our "Data management resources" page: https://environmentaldatainitiative.org/resources/dm-resources/. We also list resources from LTER and others (Carpentries, ESIP, NEON). For future posts on the topics which Corinna mentioned we will make sure to link to the appropriate, specific resources.

> I'll second Marty's suggestion about the DataONE resources -- those are managed on GitHub from community contributions, and are meant to be general purpose and useful to the broad research and data communities.  We welcome edits and contributions of new material small and large, and have described how to do that here: https://dataoneorg.github.io/Education/CONTRIBUTING  A wide variety of people from the community have contributed to date.

> The lesson collection is a bit odd because we need to treat each folder as an item, but Jekyll treats each file as an item. Metadata from both the slides.md and index.md is used in rendering, but it takes a bit of extra work to get those metadata attributes when rendering a page. From the context of the index page, the slides page can be accessed as follows:

Site-specific and repository-specific practices might be less well-suited there, but that could be open to discussion too.  I'll cc Amber Budden who coordinates that work and maybe she will have further thoughts on these types of community resources.

Clearly the LTER Data Policy and Guidelines are LTER-specific. What other resources does an LTER information manager need, that other information managers might not?

One section would along the lines of John Porter’s ‘brochure’ of talking points, i.e., ‘Why curate, archive and publish your data’. The other one would be ‘for new data managers’, which is not a good title, but I haven’t come up with a better one yet. To start with that would be a place to write up the discussion we had on how to engage with the scientists on your project.
