This document discusses the role of librarians in supporting research data management (RDM). It outlines the University of East London's (UEL) approach to RDM, including developing an RDM policy and providing training to librarians and researchers. Librarians are well-positioned to help with RDM due to their expertise in managing information and commitment to long-term research. However, many librarians lack skills specific to RDM. To address this, UEL created an online training course called "supportDM" to teach librarians how to support researchers with data management plans, preservation, and sharing data. The document encourages other institutions to make use of existing RDM resources and train their own lib

An RDM Service for Health Researchers: LSHTM Case Study

Research Data Management Initiatives at the University of Edinburgh

This paper will discuss the issues involved in exploring university obligations in the area of research data management, while conveying the current state of progress at one institution, Edinburgh. The issues are fairly static – from data ownership and rights to retention and sustainability – but the solutions are a moving target as the research environment and its technologies continue to change, subtly altering what is perceived as possible, feasible, and desirable. The planned University of Edinburgh approach to research data storage and management will be outlined.

UKSG: connecting the knowledge community

In order to be reused, research data must be discoverable. The EPSRC Research Data Expectations* requires research organisations to maintain a data catalogue to record metadata about research data generated by EPSRC-funded research projects. Universities are increasingly making research data assets available through repositories or other data portals. The requirement for a UK research data discovery service has grown as universities become more involved in RDM and capacity develops.
