Webinar: Using Social Media Research Data Responsibly: Considerations for Librarians and Researchers June 3, 2021

May 21, 2021 5:34 PM | Cameron

The RDAP Association is pleased to announce the following free webinar on June 3, 3-4 pm EST:

Using Social Media Research Data Responsibly: Considerations for Librarians and Researchers

Presenters: Aditya Ranganath and Jordan Wrigley

What is the role of privacy and consent in social media research data? What are the potential political, institutional, and ethical issues that researchers should consider when developing projects that utilize social media data? Social media-based research has proliferated in recent years, and as researchers increasingly view social media platforms as a source of valuable and easily mined data, this trend is accelerating. However, the norms, policies, and ethical considerations that regulate the use of these data remain confusing and vague. This webinar will overview the current political, legal, and ethical issues surrounding social media based research. It will also discuss practical steps that researchers and those in research support roles can take to minimize the potential risks that arise when using social media data. Such steps include developing plans to safeguard participant privacy and consent, and understanding Terms of Service or User Agreements.
