Serge Goldstein of Princeton will be speaking on the institution's DataSpacemodel for preserving and sharing research data on an EDUCAUSE webcast on September 1, 2010. This will offer a look at another major research university's evolving strategy for addressing data stewardship and the emerging requirements from research funders. I've reproduced the EDUCAUSE announcement below; note that they require registration, and (virtual) space on these sessions is limited and often fills up. These sessions are also archived for replay.

The EDUCAUSE Live! webcasts are a wonderful resource that should be of very broad interest to CNI-announce readers; normally, we don't cross-post there announcements unless they are very closely related to CNI's program as this one is, so you may want to directly subscrbe to their announcement list.
