Darlene,

Here's an article from my colleagues at the University of Michigan that may

Abstract

Recent years have seen a growing emphasis on the need for improved
management of research data. Academic libraries have begun to articulate
the conceptual foundations, roles, and responsibilities involved in data
management planning and implementation. This paper provides an overview of
the Engineering data support pilot at the University of Michigan Library as
part of developing new data services and infrastructure. Through this pilot
project, a team of librarians had an opportunity to identify areas where
the library can play a role in assisting researchers with data management,
and has put forth proposals for immediate steps that the library can take
in this regard. The paper summarizes key findings from a faculty survey and
discusses lessons learned from an analysis of data management plans from
accepted NSF proposals. A key feature of this Engineering pilot project was
to ensure that these study results will provide a foundation for librarians
to educate and assist researchers with managing their data throughout the
research lifecycle.
