General Data Management Best Practices: New Lesson? and Resources/Objectives #5

Open mjones01 opened 8 years ago

mjones01 commented 8 years ago

These resources were listed in the original lessons from the Hack-a-thon. No obvious place for them in the current 00-06 lessons but I didn't want to lose/ overlook them as we build out this lesson series.

Add this into a current lesson or create a new Best Practices lesson?

best practices for data management: https://www.dataone.org/sites/all/documents/DataONE_BP_Primer_020212.pdf https://www.dataone.org/sites/all/documents/DataONE-PPSR-DataManagementGuide.pdf faq/best practices for metadata writing: http://geology.usgs.gov/tools/metadata/tools/doc/faq.html
