The DMPTool is a template that walks users through creating comprehensive data management plans. This webinar, provided by the Network of the National Library of Medicine (NNLM) will guide attendees through data management plan basics, creating a DMPTool profile, and exploring available templates and planning resources.

OHIO's participation in the DMPTool is provided by the Ohio University Libraries in collaboration with OIT and the Office of Reseach. DMPTool is a great resource for building data management plans for grant applications, especially considering that starting in January 2023 the NIH will require funded researchers to submit a plan outlining how scientific data from their research will be managed and shared.

Objectives:

• Understand the importance of creating data management plans to improve research practices
• Describe what a data management plan is and its components.
• Navigate the DMPTool website to create a profile, explore templates, and find help guides.
• Walk through creating a “test” DMP using the DMPTool.

Attendees must create a free NNLM account and register.
