This course is held in the Czech language.

Annotation: In this lecture, we will discuss what electronic laboratory (or also field) journals - ELN for short - are, what are the advantages of using them for scientific data management, and what is the plan for supporting these tools within the National Data Infrastructure (NDI) in the Czech Republic. We will start by explaining the basic features of ELNs, how ELNs differ from electronic notebooks such as OneNote and Evernote, and for which phase of the scientific data lifecycle ELNs are appropriate to use. We will then focus on practical examples of the use of ELNs. We will focus on how ELNs can simplify everyday work with scientific data. We will conclude the lecture with a discussion.

Benefits for the attendees: 

• Learn why it is appropriate to use ELN for live data management.
• They will learn the differences between an ELN, an electronic notebook, and a repository.
• They will be familiar with the practical use of their chosen ELN.
