Data Management Expert Guide
DMEG is the tutorial that contains essential information for researchers and other professionals who want to manage and archive their data.

It describes the data life cycle from planning, organising, documenting, processing, storing and protecting research data to sharing and publishing them. It is by all means a valuable guide for everyone who seek help with the data management.
