In this article, the authors report on an ongoing Data Life-Cycle Management (DLCM) National project realized in Switzerland, with a major focus on long-term preservation. Based on a extensive document analysis as well as semi-structured interviews, the project aims at providing national services to respond to the most relevant researchers' DLCM needs, which includes: guidelines for establishing a data management plan, active data management solutions, long-term preservation storage options, training, and a single point of access and contact to get support. In addition to presenting the different working axes of the project, the authors describe a strategic management and lean startup template for developing new business models, which is key for building viable services.
Abstract. In this paper, we will analyze and discuss the quality of a project course with an international, collaborative and online format, whose content touches all Swiss information literacy standards. The analysis on a micro-level shall illuminate if the course setup can be declared as a more comprehensive teaching method for LIS students, than the simple teacher-or classroom centered education.
