[Data-Mongers] Data Conservancy, Data Practices Questionnaire

[Anne Thessen]

Greetings!

Apologies for cross postings.  I write to you on behalf of the Life 
Sciences component of the Data Conservancy.  The Data Conservancy is an 
NSF DataNet project.  Its goal is to explore issues relating to data 
preservation and reuse.  We have prepared a questionnaire for domain 
scientists at http://lifesciences.questionpro.com  to help us understand 
current practices and future requirements within the Life Sciences.  We 
would be very pleased if you would take some time to answer the 
questions, if you are not a domain scientist, help us distribute the 
questionnaire to a wider audience.  The answers to this questionnaire 
will help the NSF promote sound and sustainable data practices for the 
future.

If you have any comments or feel that there are additional issues that 
need to be considered, please email me.  Let your voice be heard!


Thank you for your time.  Feel free to pass on the link to your colleagues.
