RDM policy drivers for universities
declaration data are a public good and should
be openly available
Common principles on data policy www.rcuk.ac.uk/research/Pages/

The ‘big data’ challenge for universities
Large datasets
Often curated by large international projects, national facilities or
disciplinary initiatives.
Some large data, but mostly a long-tail of small, distributed datasets with diverse needs.

Services to help unis
Jisc Research Data Registry and Discovery Service
A service to ensure that
research data held within UK data centres and
universities can be found, understood and reused
A web-based tool to
help researchers write Data Management Plans

What is a data management plan?
A brief plan to define: • how the data will be created? • how it will be documented? • who will access it? • where it will be stored? • who will back it up? • whether (and how) it will be shared & preserved?
DMPs are often submitted as part of grant applications, but are useful whenever researchers are creating data.
![Page 7: Big data: the potential role of research data management and ...Big data: the potential role of research data management and research data registries Joy Davidson, Sarah Jones and](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051809/6013c7fbb3435b114760c343/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Why create Data Management Plans?
• Plans help researchers to manage their data – Make informed decisions
– Anticipate and avoid problems
• Many funders ask for DMPs in grant proposals www.dcc.ac.uk/resources/data-management-plans/funders-requirements
• DMPs are often required by universities too “All new research proposals must include research data management plans or protocols that explicitly address data capture, management, integrity, confidentiality, retention, sharing and publication.”

Ways libraries could use DMPonline
• To identify requirements for support
– volume of data being created
– what needs to be preserved and for how long
• Monitor awareness or uptake of services
– how many DMPs say they will use repository?
• For outreach – advocate and improve practice
