We review five data tools and discuss their features and usability and how these tools facilitate open and FAIR data practices across the research data lifecycle. Each tool has a product guide handout that librarians and instructors can use to create instructional programming at their institution. Up to date Product Guides are available at the following links: - <a href="https://lor.nnlm.gov/op/op.Download_Share.php?documentid=4495">DMPTool</a> - <a href="https://lor.nnlm.gov/op/op.Download_Share.php?documentid=4238">Common Data Elements</a> - <a href="https://lor.nnlm.gov/op/op.Download_Share.php?documentid=4496">OpenRefine</a> - <a href="https://lor.nnlm.gov/op/op.Download_Share.php?documentid=4240">NLM Scrubber</a> - <a href="https://lor.nnlm.gov/op/op.Download_Share.php?documentid=4494">Open Science Framework</a> More data tools - <a href="https://www.nnlm.gov/Brq5S">PubChem</a> - <a href="https://www.nnlm.gov/BHKwV">NIH Comparative Genomics Resource</a> - <a href="https://www.nnlm.gov/FbzJ3">NLM Dataset Catalog</a> - <a href="https://www.nnlm.gov/FXQDs">NNLM Repository Finder</a> Please contact the authors with questions or for more information.
