Many funding agencies have research data sharing policies requiring researchers to include data management plans with their proposals. Understanding what to include in your plan and the various data management options available to you can be time-consuming and challenging.
The NCSU Libraries provides free guidance to NC State faculty, staff, post-docs, and students on creating and implementing data management plans. Our consultation includes reviewing and providing advice on documenting data types and standards for data description, identifying options for short-term storage and long-term preservation, sharing and access considerations, policies for re-use and re-distribution, and defining responsibilities for carrying out the data management plan.
