8	Support your Research with data deposit & Borealis-Dataverse!	James Doiron and Kelsey Poloney	DSC	Depositing research data into digital data repositories in support of their long-term stewardship is increasingly becoming a required component of the research process. Join us for an applied session where topics covered will include the importance and benefits of data deposit, impending Tri-Agencies requirements related to data sharing, and how data deposit supports open science and the visibility and impact of research as well as open. This session will also provide an overview of the University of Alberta Library’s freely available research data repository, Borealis-Dataverse, including its key features. Participants are welcome to create an account prior to the session and learn to navigate and use Dataverse.	Scheduled		All Audiences	10/17/2024	Online
9	Support your Research with better metadata in Borealis-Dataverse!	John Huck	DSC	Increase the visibility of your research by learning how to create effective metadata for your data deposits in Borealis (Dataverse). The Borealis platform provides an extensive set of metadata fields that researchers can use to describe their data deposits. This gives Borealis the flexibility to accommodate many types of data, but also means that creating metadata can sometimes feel overwhelming. Metadata librarian John Huck will provide an overview of the Borealis metadata fields—including new fields introduced in recent updates to the platform—and help you identify the most important fields to use for your data. The session will also briefly cover metadata for the Federated Research Data Repository (FRDR), provide practical tips for better metadata, and explain how aggregating platforms like Lunaris harvest metadata from various data repositories to provide comprehensive search and discovery capabilities.	Scheduled		All Audiences	11/7/2024	Online
10	Support your Research with GIS/Mapping Data Resources!	Larry Laliberte	DSC	This session will provide participants with an overview of the current landscape of GIS data and historical map access, resources, and emerging projects that are contextualizing maps, enriching visualization, and increasing text searchability. The session will also weave “pivot-on-the-floor” cabinet curation, with threads of scanning, metadata, and the recent migration/upload of the William C. Wonders Map Collection’s digital maps to Internet Archive (IA).	Scheduled		All Audiences	11/19/2024	Online
11	Photo Editing with Photoshop	Hanne Pearce	DSC	Is it ethical to edit photos? Do photos ever convey ‘the truth’? Is photography a product of technology or a form of art? These are some of the ideas that will be discussed in this workshop that will introduce participants to both practical and theoretical implementations of digital photo editing using Adobe Photoshop. Participants will learn about how to make adjustmentss, correct imperfections in image quality, how to use masks and other modification tools, and also consider the deeper social and historical perspectives tied to photo manipulation. This workshop will focus on achieving particular kinds of results with photoshop, rather than just listing and demonstrating tools.

12	Illustration for Academic Purposes	Hanne Pearce and Sarah-Jeanne Belec	DSC	Research communication often requires the representation of data in the form of charts or diagrams to illustrate how experiments were conducted, to elaborate on frameworks, and to explain complex ideas. This workshop will make use of a number of tools to create impactful illustrations for your research communications. This will include a demo of using basic charts and data modules in Adobe Illustrator and Excel. We will also practise building illustrations in both Figma and in the Procreate App on iPads. We will discuss how to ideate your concepts into illustrations, and how to find colours, typefaces, and layouts to ensure your visuals look professional and polished.

15	Object Photography	Hanne Pearce	DSC	In research and teaching, often one has to capture detailed images of objects so they can be studied later or presented in the classroom. In this workshop we will learn how to take images of small to medium sized objects. We will review camera settings and discuss using a shallow depth of field. We will use object softboxes to get photos free of disracting backgrounds. The workshop will also include a tutorial on how to remove backgrounds from images to prepare the photos for use in slides, teaching materials or digital archives.
