Drilling Down on Data Management Planning – Data Management Plans (DMPs) are an often overlooked tool for effectively planning how and where to store, describe and archive your research data so that it is secure and discoverable. Preparing a DMP in advance will assure that your next grant submission will be straightforward. In this workshop we will look at the components of a DMP required by federal funding agencies, use of dmptool.org to find templates for specific agencies and software and web-based tools that will make updating and modifying your DMP simple. Participants are encouraged to bring DMPs that they have used or are preparing for questions or group discussion.
