Research Data Management (RDM) is increasingly recognized as a key part of the research enterprise in all disciplines. With the forthcoming release of the Tri-Agencies’ Policy on Research Data Management, both researchers and the institutions and people who support them must have a grasp of the fundamentals of RDM. This workshop will present an overview of the resources, support, and opportunities available to help researchers and others implement best practices in RDM. We will begin with an overview of the Portage Network, a national network of experts dedicated to building RDM capacity and community in Canada. We will work with an example of a Data Management Plan (DMP) template that has been developed by the Portage community specifically with arts-based research in mind, and discuss some of the questions that arise with data management in these disciplines. We will then look at several tools and resources available to help researchers, including Portage’s Training Portal and the DMP Assistant.
Portage Network is a national, library-based research data management network. The aim of Portage is to coordinate and expand existing expertise, services, and infrastructure so that all academic researchers in Canada have access to the support they need for research data management.
Jeff Moon is the Director of Portage, a national, library-based network launched by the Canadian Association of Research Libraries (CARL) with the goal of building capacity and coordinating Research Data Management (RDM) activities in Canada.

Departing from her recently published volume Reclaiming Artistic Research (2019), Lucy Cotter’s lecture will propose that artistic research needs to be salvaged from the shadows of academic definitions and institutional agendas. Drawing on the book’s dialogues with artists worldwide, she will foreground how art’s open-ended ways of knowing and unknowing open up through play, and through material and embodied practice, challenging the terms of academic discourse.
Sharing her new research-in-progress, Cotter will consider how narrow definitions of human intelligence have impoverished and misdirected fields like neuroscience, artificial intelligence, and robotics. She will highlight the renewed urgency of art’s interventions in knowledge production, offering examples of artists who address racial and cultural bias in new technologies, and challenge the ways in which A.I. datasets and digital heritage databanks produce new forms of inequity.
Lucy Cotter, an internationally renowned writer and curator, developed one of the first MA programs in artistic research in Europe, the Master Artistic Research at the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague from 2010-2015, with an experimental practice-led curriculum and extensive public programme. Her latest book Reclaiming Artistic Research (Hatje Cantz, 2019) was launched at the Research Pavilion, 58th Venice Biennale. She is currently working on an experimental play entitled The Entangled Museum, which circles around issues of restitution, cultural beliefs, and the limits of acceptable knowledge. Previous curatorial projects includes being curator of the Dutch Pavilion, 57th Venice Biennale 2017, and co-curator of the transnational artistic research project Here as the Center of the World. Cotter holds a PhD in Cultural Analysis from the University of Amsterdam and has lectured at several academies in Europe and the US. She is Curator in Residence 2020-21 at Disjecta Center for Contemporary Art in Portland, Oregon. Genre

As the pandemic continues to exacerbate and expose socio-economic inequities and calls for racial justice focus attention on the compound impact on Indigenous, Black, and People of Colour, Emily Carr University’s Digital + Creative Knowledge Sharing Fall Series presents a timely and urgent roundtable on Anti-Racism in Action: Race-Based Data Collection for Evidence-Based Policy Change in Vancouver.
Business as usual is irresponsible and unacceptable when change is necessary. Acknowledging the disparate effects of policies on different groups, the provincial government and city council finally committed in June 2020 to start disaggregating race-based data to inform and support policy change. University members across Canada convened in early October 2020 for a set of national dialogues for racial reckoning in higher education, with a dedicated deconstruction of the ideological and logistical challenges to collecting race-based data.
Let’s keep up the momentum of these movements and conversations by joining Rachel Wuttunee (City of Vancouver Planner for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls), Peter Marriott (City of Vancouver Planner for the Healthy City Strategy), and Dr. Laura Tate (independent consultant and educator on applied qualitative research for social change) for an important discussion on how race-based data collection and care can compel and carry action for change, moderated by Nadia Carvalho (City of Vancouver Planner for the Equity Framework and Vancouver Immigration Partnership) and hosted by Dr. Cissie Fu (Dean of the Faculty of Culture + Community at Emily Carr University).
To warm us up to practices of reciprocity, the panel invites us to take a moment before the event to read:
Rachel Wuttunee, Indigenous Equity Data: Substance Use, Mental Health, and Wellness (UBC Sustainability Scholars Report, 2019), specifically the Executive Summary (pages v – vi) and Section 1.3 “Why it is important to talk about the colonial context when examining the inequities found in data” (pages 3 – 4)
and take the time that each of us needs to stay with Reclaiming Power and Place: The Executive Summary of the Final Report of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (2019). Genre

In this workshop, Hillary Webb will give a virtual tour of the Emily Carr University’s institutional repository system (Islandora), an overview of the kinds of research + creation accepted to the repository, an explanation of the non-exclusive distribution license, and walk-through of the self-submission process and setting up a profile page. Hand-in-hand with setting up a profile page is the process of registering for a personal persistent digital identifier (ORCID). A researcher’s ORCID can be used when submitting their work for publication, submitting grant applications, and in any research workflow to ensure their work gets recognized. After the demonstration, Hillary will be available to assist ECU researchers with setting up a profile page and registering for an ORCID.
Hillary Webb is the Systems + Technical Services Librarian and liaison to the faculty of Culture + Community at Emily Carr University of Art + Design. She has been instrumental in building an open access institutional repository called eCollections at Emily Carr. eCollections features graduate student theses, digitized archival photos and student publications, and visual documentation from the yearly graduation exhibition. The site launched two new collections in late 2019 to feature the research output of the Emily Carr community: ‘Researcher Profiles’ and ‘Research + Creation.’ Genre

The world today presents us with many complex challenges, such as dealing with a pandemic. The solutions to these challenges are not easily found through the lens of single scholarly disciplines. Increasingly, problem-solving in a complex world requires approaches that bring two or more disciplinary perspectives into communication (inter- and multi-disciplinarity) and, in some cases, even requires than disciplinary boundaries be transcended to generate novel approaches (trans-disciplinarity). In this workshop, Victoria Lemieux will discuss how she and her colleagues at Blockchain@UBC have developed and are using a unique “Three Layer Model” to bring students from different disciplinary perspectives into conversation surrounding blockchain solution design challenges to generate deeper cross disciplinary understanding and novel design insights.
Victoria L. Lemieux is an Associate Professor at the University of British Columbia School of Information. Her interests include risk to the availability of trustworthy records, in particular in blockchain record keeping systems, and how these risks impact upon transparency, financial stability, public accountability and human rights. Between 2014-2016, Dr. Lemieux worked with the World Bank on transparency and information management to support economic and social development, leading various big data analytics projects and winning the Bank’s Big Data Innovation Award in 2015. In 2016, Dr. Lemieux founded, Blockchain@UBC’s multidisciplinary blockchain research cluster and in 2019 NSERC awarded her $1.6M to train up to 139 masters and PhD students from multiple disciplines in blockchain and distributed ledger technology over the next five years. Dr. Lemieux has won several awards for her research and contributions to the field of archives and records management, including a 2020 Global Blockchain Revolution Award for Blockchain Ecosystem Leadership.

In this presentation, Dorit Naaman will address data management through emergent research-creation methods in the settings of contested territory and traumatic histories. It will describe Naaman’s interactive documentary project, Jerusalem, We Are Here (2016), which was built on, and continues to generate, a dynamic archive of ephemera and stories about homes in West Jerusalem by the Palestinian families who were displaced from them during the 1948 war. This work presents the ethical challenges inherent in participatory projects that result in sensitive data alongside expectations for widespread public dissemination.
Dorit Naaman is an award-winning documentarist and film theorist. Naaman is an Israeli-Canadian professor of Film and Media at Queen’s University. She is the director of Jerusalem, We Are Here, an interactive documentary that digitally re-inscribes Palestinians into the Jerusalem neighborhoods from which they were expelled by the 1948 war. Dr. Naaman publishes texts on media and Palestinian/Israeli politics, especially the representation of gender and ethnicity in relationship to nationalism. Genre

For many, libraries are warm, welcoming places, tinged with nostalgia and fond memories. Yet these library collections and spaces are also sites of trauma for researchers, particularly Indigenous students. The presentation is a chance for those who work in research, libraries, and in student support to draw from nêhiyaw laws of relationality to consider the way that libraries can make space for emotional competency in supporting student research.
