Various forms of research data
Research data management is a complex issue, but if done correctly from the start it could save you a lot of time and hassle at the end of the project, when preparing your data for a publication or writing up your thesis. Research data takes many forms, ranging from measurements, numbers and images to documents and publications. The resources on these pages were prepared for you by the University Library to help you plan, create, organise, share and look after your research materials, whatever form they take.
