COVID-19 Correctional Pop. Reduction Requests
No full textThis data set was the origin point of the Data Project, created so that during the early days of the pandemic advocates could share their work and see what others were writing in their legal filings, demand letters, petitions, etc. The targets of these efforts represented the broad sweep of public officials with authority over releases, including governors, sheriffs, prosecutors, state courts, federal courts, and probation chiefs. Our initial spreadsheet tab quickly became full of many different kinds of work product directed to the various, different authorities so we soon decided to break it out into separate tabs. This was the origin of, among other datasets, COVID-19 Jail Releases and COVID-19 Prison Releases (both initially helmed by Maddy DeLone), and our COVID-19-Related Legal Filings and Court Orders database, which eventually grew into a collaboration of UCLAW, Columbia Law School, zealous and Bronx Defenders and is now available on the Health Is Justice Litigation Hub (which will soon be moving to the COVID Behind Bars Data Project website)
Data Curation Profile Media Studies
No full textSimilar to how unique and sophisticated algorithms dictate Tiktok’s “For You” page, consumers’ choices are dictated by brand advertisements and corporate promotions. TikTok is a rising social media platform where users cultivate trends and niche communities in the form of video content and interactions. As a result, numerous industries have shifted their marketing practices in response to consumption habits influenced by the platform. Barnes and Noble, the largest retail bookseller in the United States, has unveiled their publicity strategy in the form of ubiquitous tables filled with stacks of BookTok recommendations. Its significance has transcended the virtual realm and left an impact on the literature publishing world in the form of increased sales, engagement, and marketing. In this project, we focus on the people studying this phenomenon and the data they are using for their research. We have gathered one hundred articles to provide a survey of data management practices in this field. The articles that we found come from digital media and entertainment, science journals, magazines, news outlets, major newspapers, private organizations, and university student-run newspapers. The articles focus on three major platforms and their literature subgroups: Tiktok and #BookTok, Instagram and Bookstagram, and YouTube and BookTube. Through this collection of one hundred articles, we will analyze the process wherein data are shared amongst researchers in the mass communication and social media fields, ultimately creating a data curation profile to study how the discipline has surveyed the influence of social media over time.

COVID-19 Visitation Policy by State (Prisons)
No full textThis data set was originally just a list created by Keegan Hawkins UCLAW ’21, in early March 2020 when prison systems around the country began to cancel visits. When we launched our open-source spreadsheet, this tab sat alongside Correctional Population Reduction Requests. We ultimately filled out the details, so this database is complete: it tracks the dates and details of the visitation cancellation policies in all 50 state prison systems plus the federal BOP
Covid-19 Fundraisers and Mutual Aid Efforts
No full textThis data set was initially launched by Jordan Palmer, UCLAW 2021, who served as the first team lead of our Grassroots and Other Organizing Team. In investigating grassroots actions undertaken by incarcerated people and their loved ones and communities to draw attention to the plight of people in custody during COVID, Jordan came across many postings for fundraisers and other relief efforts on behalf of the incarcerated. Given the traffic that our spreadsheet was attracting, we decided to create this data set as a resource for those users wishing to contribute to these campaigns
