Many funding agencies now require researchers to plan ahead for data preservation and sharing as part of their research projects. To aid with these requirements, the University Libraries now offer the California Digital Library’s DMPTool, a program which walks researchers through the process of writing a data management plan for 20 different granting agencies, including the National Endowment for the Humanities, the National Institutes of Health, and the National Science Foundation. DMPTool also provides links to institution-specific guidelines.
