"Presentation at the Dataverse Community Meeting, June 14, 2018, Harvard, MA, USA.The Canadian Association of Research Libraries (CARL) Portage Network is committed to developing a community of practice devoted to strengthening the capacity of university libraries to provide expertise, services, and infrastructure for research data management in Canada. As a part of its mandate, Portage has established the Dataverse North Working Group. In Canada, some universities and regional library consortia have been providing Dataverse as a service for many years (e.g. UBC Abacus Dataverse; Scholars Portal Dataverse; and University of Alberta Dataverse). \r\n\r\nWorking as a collaborative community and centered around the use of Dataverse across Canada, we surveyed users and institutional providers about their repository use, setup and configurations, and training needs. This work resulted in a proposal to create a national Dataverse North service, that would include data hosting, infrastructure development (including a bilingual interface), data preservation, training, and coordinated user support. This presentation provides an update from the Introduction to Dataverse North presented at the 2017 Dataverse Community Meeting, to our current progress in 2018 as we begin efforts to implement a national Dataverse North service."@en .

Dataverse North should work to develop multi-modal training materials, with an immediate priority on general introductory manuals, videos, and workshops that are aimed at librarians and library staff.
