There is consensus across the research community: research data matters. This position has been recently reinforced by federal funding agencies: In January 2023, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) will begin requiring most of the 300,000 researchers and 2,500 institutions it funds annually to include a data-management plan in their grant applications and to make their data publicly available. The release of the most recent OSTP Public Access Policy memo in August 2022 further emphasized the importance of data management and sharing for all sponsored research.This new federal guidance has accelerated the need for institutions, libraries, and vendors to work together to build robust RDM support communities not only on their campuses, but also across the wider research ecosystem. In this panel, an industry expert will moderate an interactive discussion with data management librarians about how community-building and partnerships can begin to address institutional RDM needs and challenges. Topics covered will include: * Collaborating across campus: panelists will share their approaches and lessons learned for working with multiple stakeholders across their campuses * Learning together: panelists will discuss community-led initiatives they are engaged in: the Ithaka S&R Coordinating Research Data Support Services study, the InvenioRDM project, and the Research Data Management Librarian Academy * Service gaps: panelists will discuss where there are still service gaps that need to be addressed - as well as some of the challenges around closing those gaps Emily Singley VP, North American Library Relations ORCID ID: 0000-0003-3029-8517<https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3029-8517> ELSEVIER <https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Felsevier.com%2F&data=05%7C01%7Ce.singley%40elsevier.com%7C716c47004dbb4f75370d08daa160d498%7C9274ee3f94254109a27f9fb15c10675d%7C0%7C0%7C637999734499681589%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=LhuSuvtPb%2BKY%2FKgk0iTQPAvjMEnBrJaNOhoj9ib6%2BwU%3D&reserved=0> | Research Networks e.singley@elsevier.com<mailto:e.singley@elsevier.com%0d> Medford, MA USA (ET) +1 781-539-4897 Emails can arrive at all hours but at Elsevier, we respect your personal time.
