Opus: UCLA’s campus faculty profile system

Issues already identified: Incomplete, inaccurate, or inappropriately used data Conflict between the need for transparency in a public institution and the privacy of information about individuals and research Uncertainty about how the data will be used and combined System security “The very nature of systematizing and recording information creates categories and names that can unintentionally influence perception or privilege certain ways of looking over others”

UCLA’s Research Informatics Strategic Planning Initiative (RISP) Goals include the following: To allow UCLA to stay in the forefront of “big data” analytics; To foster collaboration and significantly broaden faculty participation in data-drive research; and To bring visibility to UCLA in “big data”

The UCLA Library’s contributions to OPUS and RISP Governance and participation in policy development System design Source of some types of data Identity management Data visualization pilots including publication of the visualizations Accessibility of data to others
