Find of the Month

Human transience: Memento mori

Our ‘Find of the Month’ this time refers to Memento Day, which has been observed in Germany on 8 August every year since 2019. Unlike in South America, for example, dying, death and human transience are rarely discussed in public life in Europe. This was not always the case.

250 Years of the Library

From the ‘Public Library’ founded in 1776 by Prince-Bishop Heinrich von Bibra to today’s University, State and Public Library, the library has gone through many stages. Discover the traces of this development at the Heinrich-von-Bibra-Platz location right up to the present day, from historical exhibits in the permanent exhibition to robots available for loan!

Research-related Service of the Month

RDMO – Fulda University of Applied Sciences’ Data Management Plan Tool

Data management plans (DMPs) set out in advance how research data will be handled during projects and how it will be made available once projects expire. They are increasingly required by funding organisations, whilst also being in the researchers’ own interests.

Members of Fulda University of Applied Sciences have access to the web-based tool RDMO (Research Data Management Organiser). RDMO provides structured questionnaires for creating DMPs, as well as explanations in help texts.
