Data Management and Sharing on the Open Science Framework (OSF)
Data created through a research project needs to be managed to be findable, reusable, and understandable throughout the research lifecycle. Collaborative data management allows all members of a research team to contribute, increasing openness and transparency, but also complexity. Developing data management plans helps define the who, what, where, and when of data creation and use. A shared, collaborative plan helps all participants keep their data and other materials organized. CSUSB has an institutional instance of OSF, so you can access and share your data.
In this workshop, we will work together to:
- Describe the importance of data management
- Describe the components of FAIR data
- Identify appropriate data management strategies
- Define metadata
- Describe the importance of data sharing
Come learn how to collaborate and share your work here at CSUSB with Scholarly Communication Librarian Dr. Jennifer Beamer!

What to Expect
I will meet with you one-on-one to discuss research strategies and appropriate resources for your research. I will also provide instructions on searching, as needed. At the end of the consultation, you will be better equipped to continue your research independently.
What to Bring
- Your topic and assignment (notes, syllabus, handouts, etc.)
- Anything you have found (books, articles, citations, etc.)
- Something for note-taking
Things to know:
- You aren't required to make an appointment to get help from a librarian! You can also chat with a librarian, email a librarian, or text us a question (909-542-8990). Are you looking for self-help options? Try one of our Library Guides, or check our FAQ.
- But if you need a specific time to fit your schedule, anyone is welcome to make an appointment.
- Appointments are scheduled in 30-minute blocks and must be made at least 24 hours in advance.
