LSU Health Digital Scholar

Data Collection in Digital Scholar

The libraries are excited to announce a new Data Collection in LSU Health’s Digital Scholar! It showcases the public datasets researchers from LSU Health Sciences Center – New Orleans have published. Publishing datasets is an important aspect of Open Science and reproducibility of published research. Our Data Collection is not a repository, but an archive of published data from other platforms, collected in one place to showcase the scholarly work of everyone at LSUHSC-NO.

If you have published a dataset in an open repository such as Zenodo, Harvard Dataverse, Open Science Framework, Dryad, Figshare, or others: please alert the libraries! We will add them to the growing collection of datasets. You can contact digitalscholar@lsuhsc.edu to submit your dataset, and if you have any other scholarly publications you’d like added to LSU Health’s Digital Scholar.

If you are in need of assistance with a Data Management Plan or where to deposit your data as required by funding or encouraged by the journal you’re publishing with: contact the libraries! Our librarians have experts in helping you in a variety of ways.
