FAQs
What resources are necessary to write a DMP?
When the library receives a request for help with a DMP, we need a few details to get started:
- The specific RFP
- A summary or copy of your proposal
- A copy of any DMP you have already started
- Preferred deadlines (funder deadline, OSP deadline, your deadline…)
- Are there any confidentiality issues we need to be aware of?
The library will then:
- Pull the RFP looking for any specific data related requirements.
- Review the specific data management or public sharing guidance provided by the funder.
- Pull questions from the DMPTool to help direct the type of information to include in the DMP.
- Look at other research you have been involved with to get a general idea of your work, tools you may have used in
the past, other data you have produced or shared, or discipline-specific data practices common in your field. - Arrange a meeting or correspond with you about your DMP.
