Conference session

In Canada, digital research infrastructure for undertaking, supporting, and preserving research has evolved over decades following policy developments, asserted researcher needs, and strategic priorities. Digital research infrastructure for the humanities and social sciences is multifaceted, but the way it interlocks—or could interlock—to form one cohesive, efficient structure is not always obvious. In this roundtable we will consider the ways in which digital research infrastructure can continue to evolve through collaboration across the sector. This session features representatives from the Canadian Research Knowledge Network, Érudit, and the University of Alberta Libraries and will speak to researchers, librarians, policymakers, and anyone else invested in how humanities and social sciences research (and research data) is supported by national infrastructure.
