The Research Sprints program offers faculty partners the opportunity to collaborate intensively and exclusively for one week with a team of librarians to achieve significant progress on research or teaching projects. This longitudinal study extends previous immediate and short-term assessments by interviewing Research Sprints participants at two research-intensive institutions 2-4 years after their concentrated week. The authors evaluate the enduring impact of the program on the participants’ projects, research/teaching practices, and relationships with the library. Participants report achieving project goals, improved skills and student success, and greater awareness and appreciation of librarians’ work

Research Sprints: A Model for Collaboration

This oral presentation was delivered at the LOEX conference on May 10, 2019, in Minneapolis, MN.This session presented a model for faculty support that focuses on increasing engagement, collaboration, and relationship building. Research sprints provide a unique format for the faculty to work with teams of librarians on their projects, which have ranged from developing course content to building websites and compiling databases of sources.

Direct training requires substantial time and effort, but is one of the most effective ways to make people aware of the importance of Research Data Management (RDM) best practices. The following case studies are each aimed to engage researchers with research data through different training methods: Bring Your Own Data (B.Y.O.D.) workshop at the University of Cambridge; Methods Class Outreach at the University of Minnesota; PhD course at UiT The Arctic University of Norway; Open courses at UiT..

Evidence-based practice
