is this is the new role of librarians to be incorporated into your regular duties.

Hi Daureen,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have run into a similar problem. Though my colleagues weren't critical of my data curation work, I was told that during my retention review discussion, they focused mainly on my liaison work in my subject area (Architecture, which is a minor portion
of my job) and discussed the major part, data curation, very little. The reason, according to my supervisor, was because they didn't know enough about it, so they didn't know how to assess it for merit. My goal over this next year is to better educate my colleagues
on what I do in that area so they know how to assess it in future reviews. That might be your issue or it might not, but it wouldn't hurt to make a concerted effort to help your colleagues better understand what it is that you do. I believe that work is as
much a public service as is working the reference desk, it's just more specialized. Maybe criticism is a reaction to feeling like they don't understand it<span style="font-size:12pt">.</span></div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m up for my 5-yr post tenure review and a colleague of mine is being critical of my work in data management. This is because, as she explains, it is not public service so I do not do enough public service. What I’m doing is assisting
with writing DMPs, teaching about repositories and data management, answering reference questions in data management – in addition to all the ELN work.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Has anyone run into this issue? How did you handle it?</p>
