PDFR70 | https://www.clir.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/RDM.pdf | As fellows of the Council on Library and Information Resources
(CLIR) and the Digital Library Federation (DLF) who have experience within the researcher community and the library/RDM community,
we are keenly interested in the role that libraries should assume in building coordination between funding agencies, institutions, and
researchers. Research libraries moving into this space increasingly see themselves as major show more contributors to RDM activity in general and
in the design of research data services (Pinfield et al. 2014). However, libraries operate with finite resources, mandates,
and limited researcher buy-in | Because of their expertise in research methodology and knowledge retention, academic librarians can offer relevant leadership in RDM efforts within their universities. Although collaboration across the institution is key in developing an RDM program, research libraries play an essential coordination role in the process |
