The UAlbany Data Services page provides links and guidance for finding, managing, collecting, documenting, storing, analyzing, sharing, and preserving data.

DMAC can provide support with survey data collection as well as qualitative and mixed methods approaches. DMAC and the Libraries offer data documentation support (e.g., metadata and “read-me” consultations), so critical for finding, using, sharing, and preserving data.

ITS can provide support for storing and securing your data, as well as local high-performance computing, and other services.

Contact IRB with your questions about human subjects data and IACUC with your questions about animal use data.

If you have questions about the specific data sharing and security requirements in your proposal or sponsored project, please contact your Research Administrator.

The University Libraries institutional repository can preserve and share your publications and data. There is a practical upload limit of about 15-20 GB for an individual primary or supplemental file but no storage limit for individuals. For questions or assistance, contact scholcomm@albany.libanswers.com
