new designs</h2> <p>As mentioned in our <a href="https://blog.dmptool.org/2024/10/23/announcing-the-dmp-tool-rebuild/">last blog post</a>, the team behind the DMP Tool has been working on a rebuild of the application to improve usability, add new features, and provide additional machine-actionable features.  To provide all of this advanced functionality, we needed to do a pretty big overhaul of the technology behind the DMP Tool, and it was a good time to give the design a more modern upgrade as well, adding new functionality while hopefully making existing features easier to use.</p> <div

team of designers to create interactive wireframes—prototype mockups that allow us to test potential updates to the user interface without fully developing them. These wireframes are crucial for gathering feedback from real users early, ensuring that our vision for a better tool meets their expectations.  While a lot of thought and planning went into these initial designs, we wanted to make sure people were finding the new site as easy and intuitive as possible, while still offering new, more intricate features.</p> <p>To do this, we recruited three groups of people, 12 total, who work on different parts of the tool to test out these designs:</p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>5 researchers, who would be writing DMPs in the tool</li> <li>4 organizational administrators, who would be adding guidance to template in the tool</li> <li>3 members of the editorial board or funder representatives, who would be creating templates in the tool</li> </ul> <p>We recruited volunteers from the <a href="https://www.arl.org/building-a-scalable-data-management-infrastructure-for-strategic-institutional-coordination/">pilot project</a> members, from our <a href="https://dmptool.org/editorial_board">editorial board</a>, from <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7222383080437661696">social media</a>, and from asking those we recruited to share the invitation with others. We conducted virtual interviews with each person individually, where we let them explore the wireframe for their section, gave them tasks to complete (e.g., “Share this DMP with someone else”), and asked questions about their experience.  For the most part we let people walk through the wireframes as if they were using it for real, thinking out loud about what they were experiencing and expecting.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What we found from testing</h2> <p>It was illuminating for the team to see live user reactions from these sessions, and watch them use this new tool we’re excited to continue work on.&nbsp;</p> <p>We loved to hear users say how excited they were for a particular new feature or how much they liked a new page style.&nbsp; At times it could be disheartening, watching a user not find something that we thought was accessible, but those findings are even more important because it means we have an area to improve.&nbsp; We made a report about the findings after each group of users and worked with the designers on how to address the pain points.&nbsp; Sometimes the solution was straightforward, while other times we wrestled with different options for weeks after testing.</p> <p>Overall, we found that people liked the new designs and layout and could get through most tasks successfully.  They appreciated the more modern layout and additional options. But there were many areas that the testers identified as confusing or unclear.  There are specific examples, with before-and-after screenshots, in the Appendix.  Some of the top changes made revolved around the following areas:</p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>Decreasing some text in areas that felt overwhelming, moving less important information to other pages or collapsed by default</li> <li>Adding some text to areas that were particularly unclear, such as what selecting “Tags” for a template question would do</li> <li>Connecting pages if people consistently went somewhere else, such as adding a link to sharing settings on the Project Members page since that’s where people looked for it first</li> <li>Moving some features to not show until they’re needed, such as having Visibility settings as an option in the publishing step and not the drafting step</li> <li>Clarifying language throughout when things were unclear, such as distinguishing whether “Question Requirements” was about what the <em>plan writer</em>&nbsp;was required to write when creating their DMP or whether that was about the <em>template creator </em>marking whether a question is required or had display logic</li> <li>Having additional preview options when creating a template or adding guidance to understand what a question or section would look like to a user writing a DMP</li> <li>Making certain buttons more prominent if they were the primary action on a page, like downloading a completed DMP that originally was hard to find</li> </ul> <p>Even though the main structure worked well for people, these small issues would have added up to a lot more confusion and obstacles for users if we hadn’t identified them before releasing.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Wrapping up and moving forward</h2> <p>The whole team learned a ton from these sessions, and we’re grateful to all the participants who signed up and gave their time to help us improve the tool.&nbsp; This sort of testing was invaluable to find areas to improve &#8211; we made dozens, if not hundreds, of small and large changes to the wireframes based on this testing, and we hope it&#8217;s now much better than it was originally. We&#8217;re still working on updates as we build our designs for more areas of the site, but feel better now about our core functionality.</p> <p> If you’d like to be invited to participate in surveys, interviews, or other feedback opportunities like this for the DMP Tool, please fill out this brief form here: <a href="https://forms.gle/Yp3W2y9hb8JsUMoC7">Feedback Panel Sign-Up</a>. For anyone that signed up but wasn’t selected for this round, we may reach out in the future!&nbsp;</p> <p>We loved seeing how excited people are about this update, and we can’t wait to share more.&nbsp; The most common question we get is &#8211; when is it releasing!&nbsp; That’s going to be quite some time, and we don’t have more to share yet, as we’re still too early in the development process.&nbsp; But stay tuned here for more updates as we do!&nbsp;</p> <p><em>We want to thank&nbsp;<a href="https://chanzuckerberg.com/">Chan Zuckerberg Initiative</a>&nbsp;(CZI) for their generous support for rearchitecting our platform. We wouldn&#8217;t be able to make all of these helpful updates along with our back-end transformations without it.</em></p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Appendix: Specific Examples</h2> <p><strong>Important note: </strong>The &#8220;updated wireframes&#8221; shown here are not final designs. We have not yet completed a design pass for things like fonts, colors, spacing, and accessibility; this is just a quick functionality prototype so we could get early feedback. Even the functionality shown here may change as we develop based on additional feedback, technical challenges, or other issues identified. Additionally, these wireframes are mockups and do not have real data in them, so there may be inconsistent or incorrect info in affiliations, templates, etc; we were focused on the overall user interface in testing, not specific content.</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Sharing settings</h3> <p>For those who want some more details and specific examples, here are a few of the top areas of confusion we found:</p> <p>There was sometimes confusion in how to <strong>share</strong> a plan with others, and what the distinction is between a Project collaborator (e.g., another researcher on the grant who may not be involved in the DMP) and a DMP collaborator (e.g., a peer who is giving feedback on writing the DMP but not on the project).  The current live tool has both &#8220;Project Contributors&#8221; and &#8220;DMP Collaborators&#8221; on the same page which we thought contributed to this confusion, so we wanted to separate those who can edit the DMP into a separate Sharing section.  However, testers had a hard time finding these sharing settings, and often went to the Collaborators page to grant DMP access.  So, we added a link to these settings where people were looking (the new section in the green box), and added more detail to the sharing page about whether they were invited or had access due to being a collaborator, changed some language within this like “Collaborator” to “Project Member,” with the option to change access.</p> <p><br><em>Current tool:</em></p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a

were a project collaborator.</figcaption></figure> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Card layout</h3> <p>Many parts of the tool used a new, more modern card format for displaying lists of items to choose from.  This allowed us to show more information than in a list, and adapt to smaller screens. However, we saw in some areas that people had trouble scanning these cards to find what they were looking for, like a plan or template, when they expected to search in alphabetical order.</p> <p>For example, picking a template in the first draft used a boxier card format. People found it harder to find the template they were looking for, since they wanted to quickly scan the titles vertically.  So we changed it to a different format that should be easier to scan, even if it doesn’t show as many on one page.  Note we also now have the option to pick a template other than from your funder, a common request in the current tool.  </p> <p><em>Current tool:</em></p>

plan.&nbsp; This was concerning to users since they were still drafting at this stage, and even if they may want it public once they published it, the setting in this location made it seem like it was public now.&nbsp; Instead we added a status and setting on the overview page, but the visibility setting does come up until a person gets to the Publish step, somewhat like the current tool that has

grown from a grassroots tool beginning at 8 institutions to one that serves thousands of universities across multiple continents. We’ve had a few big milestones in that time, such as adding the ability to register a DMP-ID and publish a DMP publicly, and creating the admin interface to allow universities to provide custom guidance on templates. The tool started in response to new requirements from U.S. funders for data management plans (DMPs; also known as data management and sharing plans–DMSPs), and our growth follows the research and library communities’ needs in this area.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="madmsps">Adding Machine-Actionable Functionality</h2> <p>Now, it’s time for our next big milestone in the DMP Tool: fully machine-actionable data management and sharing plans (maDMSPs).&nbsp; In 2022, the U.S. <a href="https://new.nsf.gov/chips">CHIPS and Science Act</a> was signed into law, requiring DMPs submitted to the National Science Foundation (NSF) to be “machine-readable.”&nbsp; Machine-readable, or actionable, means that information is structured in a way that enables automatic connections and transformations without the need for manual intervention.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <figure class="wp-block-image"><img data-attachment-id="2762" data-permalink="https://blog.dmptool.org/2024/10/23/announcing-the-dmp-tool-rebuild/ad_4nxe0kghhndg40t6zxs2srkjjxwessvozod3zjl0j0e-rep9jmxhvx-gmrq0yhtu8bitbl7iyediw-ewos5ccs139gg_tmnrrldzzoqric5impybpj3pk9ehenpevzaatunbomfmcbj-hubfek-wtxg3ueq/" data-orig-file="https://blog.dmptool.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/ad_4nxe0kghhndg40t6zxs2srkjjxwessvozod3zjl0j0e-rep9jmxhvx-gmrq0yhtu8bitbl7iyediw-ewos5ccs139gg_tmnrrldzzoqric5impybpj3pk9ehenpevzaatunbomfmcbj-hubfek-wtxg3ueq.png" data-orig-size="985,814" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}" data-image-title="AD_4nXe0kgHHNdG40t6Zxs2SrKjjxweSSVOZOd3zJL0j0E-rEp9JMXhVX-gMrQ0yhTu8Bitbl7iyEdIw-Ewos5Ccs139gG_tMnrrldzZoqrIc5imPyBpj3pk9EHENpEVZaatUnbOmFmcBj-HUbfek-WTxg3UeQ" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://blog.dmptool.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/ad_4nxe0kghhndg40t6zxs2srkjjxwessvozod3zjl0j0e-rep9jmxhvx-gmrq0yhtu8bitbl7iyediw-ewos5ccs139gg_tmnrrldzzoqric5impybpj3pk9ehenpevzaatunbomfmcbj-hubfek-wtxg3ueq.png?w=300" data-large-file="https://blog.dmptool.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/ad_4nxe0kghhndg40t6zxs2srkjjxwessvozod3zjl0j0e-rep9jmxhvx-gmrq0yhtu8bitbl7iyediw-ewos5ccs139gg_tmnrrldzzoqric5impybpj3pk9ehenpevzaatunbomfmcbj-hubfek-wtxg3ueq.png?w=628" loading="lazy" width="985" height="814" src="https://blog.dmptool.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/ad_4nxe0kghhndg40t6zxs2srkjjxwessvozod3zjl0j0e-rep9jmxhvx-gmrq0yhtu8bitbl7iyediw-ewos5ccs139gg_tmnrrldzzoqric5impybpj3pk9ehenpevzaatunbomfmcbj-hubfek-wtxg3ueq.png" alt="A screenshot excerpt from the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022 which reads &quot;(b) DATA MANAGEMENT PLANS.— (1)IN GENERAL.—The Director shall require that every proposal for funding for research include a machine-readable data management plan that includes a description of how the awardee will archive and preserve public access to data, software, and code developed as part of the proposed project.&quot;" class="wp-image-2762" srcset="https://blog.dmptool.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/ad_4nxe0kghhndg40t6zxs2srkjjxwessvozod3zjl0j0e-rep9jmxhvx-gmrq0yhtu8bitbl7iyediw-ewos5ccs139gg_tmnrrldzzoqric5impybpj3pk9ehenpevzaatunbomfmcbj-hubfek-wtxg3ueq.png 985w, https://blog.dmptool.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/ad_4nxe0kghhndg40t6zxs2srkjjxwessvozod3zjl0j0e-rep9jmxhvx-gmrq0yhtu8bitbl7iyediw-ewos5ccs139gg_tmnrrldzzoqric5impybpj3pk9ehenpevzaatunbomfmcbj-hubfek-wtxg3ueq.png?w=150&amp;h=124 150w, https://blog.dmptool.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/ad_4nxe0kghhndg40t6zxs2srkjjxwessvozod3zjl0j0e-rep9jmxhvx-gmrq0yhtu8bitbl7iyediw-ewos5ccs139gg_tmnrrldzzoqric5impybpj3pk9ehenpevzaatunbomfmcbj-hubfek-wtxg3ueq.png?w=300&amp;h=248 300w, https://blog.dmptool.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/ad_4nxe0kghhndg40t6zxs2srkjjxwessvozod3zjl0j0e-rep9jmxhvx-gmrq0yhtu8bitbl7iyediw-ewos5ccs139gg_tmnrrldzzoqric5impybpj3pk9ehenpevzaatunbomfmcbj-hubfek-wtxg3ueq.png?w=768&amp;h=635 768w" sizes="(max-width: 985px) 100vw, 985px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Excerpt from the CHIPS &amp; Science Act, referring to NSF-funded research</figcaption></figure> <p>On the current DMP Tool, some parts of the DMP have been made machine-actionable already, such as the DMP-ID and metadata.&nbsp; When you go to a registered&nbsp;DMP’s landing page, like this <a href="https://dmphub.uc3prd.cdlib.net/dmps/10.48321/D17598">public plan for example</a>, you see structure information like title and contributors pulled from a database.&nbsp; Other systems can work with that information through our public API, allowing for integrations with various research applications.</p> <p>Now, we want to make all parts of the DMP &#8211; such as the narrative responses to the questions describing the plan &#8211; machine-actionable, and open up more tooling to work with structured maDMSPs, as was outlined in a <a href="https://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2019/nsf19069/nsf19069.jsp">Dear Colleague letter</a> in 2019.</p> <p>There are many benefits to maDMSPs, such as:</p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>Having persistent identifiers that allow tracking of data publications and connections to other PIDs, like ORCIDs and ROR and DOIs</li> <li>Creating opportunities for sharing information about DMPs between different campus units</li> <li>Allowing integrations with research systems, like electronic lab notebooks, that can help researchers use DMPs in existing workflows</li> <li>Establishing links to research outputs, like published datasets, that came from a DMP, to help link work and track compliance with the statements in a DMP</li> </ul> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="rebuilding">Rebuilding the DMP Tool</h2> <p>To implement these major changes, we realized a significant overhaul of the current DMP Tool was needed to accommodate these new features and underlying structural changes.&nbsp; For years, the DMP Tool rebuild has been a regular discussion point; we&#8217;ve long recognized its areas for improvement and regularly fielded requests for specific features.&nbsp; However, our team of two had limited ability to implement many of our, and the community’s, grand ideas.&nbsp;</p> <p>Fortunately, we were able to obtain funding from an <a href="https://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward?AWD_ID=2332353">NSF EAGER grant</a> that allowed us to explore a rebuild of the application, which would allow us to develop these features of the new tool and bring about these needed changes.</p> <p>Our official rebuild work kicked off in April 2024 with a week-long workshop with our new team of consultants led by Paula Reeves from Reeves Branding and Zach Antony from Cazinc Digital. During that week, we dove into every aspect of the current application, mapping out existing features and brainstorming how to incorporate new ones. This included the machine-actionable data and formatting required for interoperability and the structured metadata needed to fuel the creation of machine-actionable data management plans. We reviewed the existing architecture, explored user personas, and redesigned workflows to facilitate project-centric planning.

Participation in this session allowed us to share the work we are doing as part of the<a href="https://www.arl.org/building-a-scalable-data-management-infrastructure-for-strategic-institutional-coordination/"> MAP Pilot project</a> funded by the <a href="https://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward?AWD_ID=2332353&amp;HistoricalAwards=false">NSF</a> and <a href="https://imls.gov/grants/awarded/lg-254861-ols-23">IMLS</a>, and to collaborate on scientometric analyses using open data sources such as Crossref and DataCite.</p> <p>The MAP Pilot project involves working with 10 institutions across the US to test connecting machine-actionable data management and sharing plans (maDMSPs) with related research outputs. Using research project metadata and persistent identifiers to query open data sources, it is somewhat easy to find research articles produced by a particular project, but not the datasets, software and other artifacts that are described in a DMSP. We are investigating ways to improve their findability using automation including machine learning/AI.</p> <p>When maDMSPs are created in the DMP Tool, users can enter useful project metadata to enable queries with other systems. This includes ORCIDs for contributors, funding opportunity identifiers, RORs for affiliations and funders, anticipated project start and end dates, and the planned data repository for storage. The DMP Tool then assigns a DMP ID to the DMSP.</p> <p>DMSPs are often created years before the research outputs. The DMSPs in the DMP Tool with good metadata are only 2-3 years old, and their DMSP outputs have not yet been published. Therefore, the institutions contributing to our pilot have been asked to find older, funded research projects and their outputs to use as test cases. <em>Using a new feature to upload an existing DMSP</em>, they will enter basic information about the project (i.e., title, PI, grant identifiers) for research funded by 4 major US agencies (NSF, NIH, DOE, and NASA) and for which we have the most developed API integrations. As potential DMSP outputs are identified, the pilot teams will verify their relation to the research.</p> <p>Identifying related DMSP outputs within the DMP Tool will give data librarians and research/grant management offices insight into the outputs of research projects, academic departments, and the institution. Users can generate reports for compliance checks (was the data shared according to the funder’s policy), grant reporting, and research management activities. This collaborative effort is being further developed with the Centre for Open Knowledge Infrastructure (COKI) and is funded by the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI), which supports technical work to connect plans to outputs.</p> <p>With sufficient metadata, how do we find related DMSP outputs? We start by exploring open data sources like Crossref, DataCite, and COKI. For example, we explore DataCite’s GraphQL API to extract DataCite metadata and compare it with DMP Tool projects. We use an algorithm to compare and score each field in the records. Each data source structures its metadata differently, though, so we must transform that metadata into a standardized format. We then weigh or score the confidence level of any matches found. A high confidence level is when grant IDs match, but this is rare currently. Confidence levels improve with additional identifiers like ORCIDs, RORs, and repository IDs.</p> <p>Some development challenges discussed at the workshop include:</p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li><em>US funding agencies lack a standard way of sharing metadata via their APIs and rarely include Grant IDs. Grant IDs are important but not reliable yet for identification purposes.</em></li> <li><em>Research/DMSP outputs associated with older projects frequently lack identifiers such as ROR and ORCIDs in their metadata record.&nbsp;</em></li> <li><em>How can we find datasets and software related to published research articles in systems like COKI? Can we use an article’s references to find these artifacts? What other hooks will allow us to identify these related outputs, and how could improved metadata and the usage of identifiers help facilitate making these connections?&nbsp;&nbsp;</em></li> </ul> <p>We are exploring adding more data aggregators to combine findings and create a clearer picture of a research project and its outputs. We will also explore methods to identify related works from research article reference sections, like dataset or software references. We are experimenting with ML/AI techniques to determine if a research output might be related to a DMSP.</p> <p>Findings from the MAP Pilot will be published as reports and best practices for implementing maDMSP workflows at research institutions after the project ends in 2025.

In this role, I will support ten research libraries in our pilot project, exploring ways to advance institutional coordination around machine-actionable data management and sharing plans (maDMSPs). The project will compile resources for research workflow improvements utilizing maDMSPs, such as for tracking compliance with funder data-sharing requirements or to initiate internal research infrastructure requests upon grant award, for example. Our pilot partners will also help drive improvements in the <a href="https://dmptool.org/">DMP Tool</a> itself, providing valuable software testing and feedback as new interoperability features are developed, and using real-world examples to ensure the application will meet the needs of researchers and stakeholders alike.</p> <p>Through my experiences serving as a data and repository manager for sensitive health-related information, in managing research software adoption and implementation at a large medical university, and as a facilitator for the adoption of outputs and recommendations at the Research Data Alliance, I can see the potential for the DMP Tool to provide critical research infrastructure for researchers and administrators alike as they navigate new data-sharing requirements from funders. I am excited to work with the project PIs, Cynthia Hudson Vitale and Maria Praetzellis, and the many other dedicated professionals from research library organizations in the open science movement.

Implementing maDMSPs can be a key piece of establishing interconnected, automated systems for research data management and compliance.</p> <p><strong>This pilot provides an exciting opportunity for selected institutions to help shape the development of maDMSPs and gain valuable early experience with new approaches to enable more automated and connected research data management.</strong></p> <p>By agreeing to be part of this pilot program, institutions will:</p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>Define a set of success measures for institutional pilot projects of maDMSPs at their organization.</li> <li>Gather a sample set of data management plans from funded research projects to use as test cases for connecting plans with associated datasets and other research outputs.</li> <li>Provide engaged feedback on the maDMSP features and uses at their organization.</li> <li>Conduct ongoing work to meet the locally defined success measures.</li> <li>Attend and actively participate in project meetings every other month.</li> <li>Participate in project communication, outreach, and engagement (such as conference panels, webinars, reports and articles, etc.).</li> <li>Coordinate and manage one program team site visit.</li> </ul> <p>Pilot projects should include a team of three to five people representing institutional stakeholders who will work together to test or prototype an institutional solution to support public access to research data leveraging the maDMSP. Teams may include representatives from the offices of several institutional stakeholders, such as the research office, library, information technology, institutional review board (IRB), high-performance computing units, and/or faculty.</p> <p>Examples of possible pilot projects include, but are not limited to:</p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>Modeling notification workflows that could be automated through maDMSPs to alert stakeholders to key events over the data life cycle. Example use cases include alerts around sensitive data, managing big data, enabling data transfer, and linking datasets to published outputs.</li> <li>Building prototype integrations connecting maDMSPs with existing research information management systems (RIMS) or researcher profile systems. For example, automatically updating and exchanging key metadata between maDMSPs and other research systems.</li> <li>Engaging academic or administrative departments to test the utility of maDMPs for their research workflows and data management needs. Departmental testing would provide feedback to inform the optimization of maDMSP systems.</li> <li>Demonstrating and improving communication workflows between key campus units involved in research data management using maDMSPs as a connecting platform. Example stakeholders include the library, research office, IT/security, IRB, research computing, and high-performance computing units.</li> </ul> <p>Pilot institutions will:</p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>Gain early access to new maDMSP features and functionality.</li> <li>Influence technical development and workflow processes of the maDMSP platform.</li> <li>Be reimbursed for up to $6,000 per institution to attend conferences or workshops to communicate pilot project goals or outcomes.</li> </ul> <p>The ARL/CDL project team will produce all required reporting to IMLS; there are no federal grant reporting requirements for pilot partners.</p> <p>We are seeking a range of institutions that are diverse in size, research activity, and level of development of services and infrastructure for research data management and sharing.<strong>&nbsp;Even if your institution has just begun planning for research data management and sharing, we invite you to&nbsp;<a

Association of Research Libraries (ARL) and the California Digital Library (CDL) have received a $668,048 <a href="https://imls.gov/grants/awarded/lg-254861-ols-23">National Leadership Grant</a> from the US Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) to assist institutions in managing and sharing federally funded research data. This project will build a machine-actionable data-management plan (maDMP) tool by enhancing and developing new <a href="https://dmptool.org/about_us">DMPTool </a>features utilizing persistent identifiers (PIDs). CDL and ARL will work together to further strengthen institutional capacity for tracking research outputs by piloting the institutional integration of maDMPs across an academic campus and building community across institutions for maDMPs.</p> <p>The promise of the maDMP is to be a vehicle for reporting on the intentions and outcomes of a research project that enables information exchange across relevant stakeholders and systems. maDMPs contain an inventory of key information about a project and its outputs with a change history that stakeholders can query for updated information about the project over its lifetime. By incorporating open persistent identifiers (PIDs) into DMPs and leveraging all DMP metadata for interoperability across infrastructures, institutions—and specifically libraries—will be better equipped to track and manage their institutional research data products.</p> <p>CDL and ARL have collaborated before on advancing PIDs and maDMPs, including joint efforts on the 2019 National Science Foundation (NSF) grant<a href="https://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward?AWD_ID=1945938"> Implementing Effective Data Practices</a> that led to <a href="https://www.arl.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/2020.09.25-implementing-effective-data-practices.pdf">stakeholder recommendations for collaborative research support</a>. The new IMLS project builds on this prior work by piloting maDMP workflows in the DMPTool, gathering feedback from partner institutions, and iterating on maDMP features to put those recommendations into practice at scale.</p> <p>“We are thrilled to work with ARL on this timely project to advance open science by utilizing machine-actionable DMPs,” said Günter Waibel, associate vice provost and executive director, California Digital Library. “Facilitating the sharing and tracking of research data furthers our goals of supporting open scholarship and leveraging innovative technology to situate research data within an open knowledge graph of scholarly activity. We look forward to collaborating with ARL and partner institutions to build new tools and workflows to strengthen the research data ecosystem.”</p> <p>“ARL is eager to engage its members and the broader research library community in testing new DMPTool features to improve cross-institution communications around open-science practices and research integrity,” said Mary Lee Kennedy, executive director, Association of Research Libraries.</p> <p>In addition to developing DMPTool workflows to link research outputs and track relationships, this project will also work with four institutions to pilot the new features and improve capabilities. The call for institutional teams will be distributed in the next few months. Stay tuned for information on community calls and other project updates.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">About the Association of Research Libraries</h2> <p>The Association of Research Libraries (ARL) is a nonprofit organization of <a href="https://www.arl.org/category/who-we-are/member-institutions/">research libraries in Canada and the US</a> whose vision is to create a trusted, equitable, and inclusive research and learning ecosystem and prepare library leaders to advance this work in strategic partnership with member libraries and other organizations worldwide. ARL’s mission is to empower and advocate for research libraries and archives to shape, influence, and implement institutional, national, and international policy. ARL develops the next generation of leaders and enables strategic cooperation among partner institutions to benefit scholarship and society. ARL is on the web at <a href="https://arl.org/">ARL.org.</a></p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">About the California Digital Library</h2> <p>The University of California (UC) founded the CDL in 1997 to take advantage of emerging technologies that were transforming the way digital information was being published and accessed. Since then, in collaboration with the UC libraries and other partners, we assembled one of the world’s largest digital research libraries and changed the ways that faculty, students, and researchers discover and access information. In partnership with the UC libraries, the CDL has continually broken new ground by developing systems linking our users to the vast print and online collections within UC and beyond. Building on the foundations of the Melvyl Catalog, we developed one of the largest online library catalogs in the country. We saved the university millions of dollars by facilitating the co-investment and sharing of materials and services used by libraries across the UC system. We work in partnership with campuses to bring the treasures of our libraries, museums, and cultural heritage organizations to the world. And we continue to explore how services such as digital curation, scholarly publishing, archiving, and preservation support research throughout the information life cycle. Serving the UC libraries is a vital component of our mission. Our unique position within the university allows us to provide the infrastructure and support commonly needed by the campus libraries, freeing them to focus their resources on the needs of their users. Looking ahead, the CDL will continue to use innovative technology to connect content and communities in ways that enhance teaching, learning, and research.

This new integration enables tri-directional data flows between RSpace, DMPTool, and data repositories, facilitating higher quality and more comprehensive research data capture and tracking.</p> <p>The lack of interoperability between tools is arguably the most significant barrier to streamlining workflows throughout the research lifecycle. This gap prevents the comprehensive collection and incorporation of research data and metadata into the research record captured during the active research phase. Furthermore, it limits the scope for passing this data and metadata on to data repositories, thus undermining FAIR data principles and reproducibility.

Building on the Island Digital Ecosystem Avatars (<a href="https://moorea.berkeley.edu/idea">IDEA</a>) Consortium (see <a href="https://doi.org/10.1186/s13742-016-0118-5">Davies et al. 2016</a>), the FAIR Island Project leverages collaboration between the <a href="https://moorea.berkeley.edu/index.php/">Gump Station</a> on the island of Moorea in French Polynesia (host of the NSF Moorea Coral Reef Long-Term Ecological Research site), and <a href="https://www.tetiaroasociety.org/">Tetiaroa Society</a>, which operates a newly established field station located on the atoll of Tetiaroa a short distance from Moorea.&nbsp;</p> <p>The FAIR Island project builds interoperability between pieces of critical research infrastructure &#8212; DMPs, research practice, PIDs, data policy, and publications contributing to the advancement and adoption of Open Science. &nbsp;In the global context, there are ongoing efforts to make science Open and FAIR to bring more rigor to the research process, in turn increasing the reproducibility and reusability of scientific results.&nbsp; DataCite as a global partner in the project, has been working to recognize the importance of better management of research entities. This has led to critical advances concerning the development of infrastructure for Open Science. Increased availability of the different research outputs of a project (datasets, pre-registrations, software, protocols, etc.) would enable the reuse of research to aggregate findings across studies to evaluate discoveries in the field and ultimately assess and accelerate progress.</p> <p>Key outcomes the FAIR Island team will develop include:&nbsp;</p> <ol class="wp-block-list"><li>CDL, BIDS, and the <a href="https://ucnrs.org/">University of California Natural Reserve System</a> will work together to <strong>build an integrated system for linking research data to their associated publications via PIDs</strong>. We will develop a provenance dashboard from field to publication, documenting all research data and research outcomes derived from that data.&nbsp;</li></ol> <ol class="wp-block-list" start="2"><li>The project also facilitates further development of the <a href="https://commons.datacite.org/">DataCite Commons</a> interface and extends connections made possible via the networked DMP that <strong>allows users to track relationships between DMPs, investigators, outputs, organizations, research methods, and protocols; and display citations throughout the research lifecycle.</strong></li></ol> <ol class="wp-block-list" start="3"><li>Developing<strong> an optimal data policy for place-based research</strong> by CDL, BIDS, and Metadata Game Changers is the cornerstone component of the FAIR Island project.&nbsp; A reusable place-based <a href="https://www.fairisland.org/2021/03/17/data-policy-for-fair-island-project-nearing-completion/">data policy template</a> will be shared and implemented amongst participating UC-managed field stations and marine labs. In addition, we will be incorporating these policies into a templated data management plan within the DMPTool application and sharing it with the broader community via our website, whitepapers, and conferences such as the Research Data Alliance (RDA) Plenaries.</li></ol> <p>The FAIR Island project is in a unique position to demonstrate how we can advance open science by creating optimal FAIR data policies governing all research conducted at field stations. Starting with the field station on Tetiaroa, the project team plans to demonstrate how FAIR data practices can make the reuse of data and the collaboration of data more efficient. Data Management Plans (DMPs) in this &#8220;FAIR data utopia&#8221; will be utilized as key documents for tracking provenance, attribution, compliance, deposit, and publication of all research data collected on the island by implementing mandatory registration requirements, including extensive use of controlled vocabularies, personal identifiers (PIDs), and other identifiers.</p> <p>The project will make significant contributions to international Open Science standards and collaborate with open infrastructure providers to provide a scalable implementation of best practices across services. In addition, DataCite seeks to extend the infrastructure services developed in the project to their member community across 48 countries and 2,500 repositories globally.&nbsp;</p> <p>We will continue to share details and feature developments related to the FAIR Island project via <a href="https://www.fairisland.org/home/news/">our blog</a>.

Building on this development, we are thrilled to share that the scholarly identifier service for researchers, ORCID, recently adopted the DMP as a resource type. As a result, DMPs are now a defined work type within an ORCID record and listed on an individual’s ORCID record. The connection between a DMP ID and ORCID is crucial for the <a href="https://support.datacite.org/docs/dmp-ids-in-the-pid-graph">Networked DMP</a>, as ORCIDs play a key role in facilitating connections between researchers, institutions, outputs, and projects. It is precisely these types of relationships that we are enabling through our work on Networked DMPs.</p> <figure class="wp-block-image"><img src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/f517kDHoJ4h-6Zwbu2sgvSAn-OkXxGYBB_rfWejBFNMeuIlAt3Tmnr1i29GwMwORmXibTyRW3DVq1o_W2K13Qfm7wwXFACeauC8y8opTTyQbjLDDFvzNuxTTMVoLIDFk1RhO-8ot" alt="" /><figcaption>Screenshot of manually adding a DMP as a work to an ORCID record</figcaption></figure> <p>Additionally, <strong>DMP IDs generated via the DMPTool are now automatically linked to the DMP creator’s ORCID record.</strong> This means that when a DMPTool user “Registers” their plan, a DMP ID is generated, and this record is automatically pushed to ORCID and included as a work on their ORCID profile page.&nbsp;</p> <figure class="wp-block-image"><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/Dz687AB7_4XVTGEP2RfdOm1h-_sPOWYhxtFGqGiQZRGH0rCLv7CRAoLPKUN9P2-w-tdGCG0PwEiGpGQs7QL4GWxMmwCI6RBLNYx5b3actvTCkzDbceTfkngUggJtZnM_cV_KJ25-" alt="" /><figcaption>&#8220;Registering&#8221; a DMP will generate a DMP ID and push this work to the associated ORCID record</figcaption></figure> <figure class="wp-block-image"><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/kD5KJxDoOJFpOk-Runsbw15VU4hMmfPluSNVOKw7XGhHU8ctKhQ_blDVuS8eFgMA6yjzg6NemiHUhmiumj5vIRxYiVrkTtzNv3oRRs170LRWeDKmGfjw9h-wf4K2zQAUPxeU4fQv" alt="" /><figcaption>After a DMP ID is generated this work will be listed as a work on the researcher&#8217;s ORCID record</figcaption></figure> <p>Together with Liz Krznarich from DataCite and DMPTool Editorial Board member ​​Nina Exner from Virginia Commonwealth University, I recently participated in an ORCID Community Call demonstrating this new integration and discussing our approach to building the Networked DMP. A recording of the webinar is available <a href="https://lyrasis.ensemblevideo.com/hapi/v1/contents/permalinks/t2E9Bey8/view">here</a>, and our combined slide deck is available <a href="https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1NrnFn3feMloZpHsugeamW8RlZJyqaLiTMeqolTGgKU4/edit?usp=sharing">here</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>The DMPTool team continues to expand the Networked DMP. Development is currently underway for additional features within the DMPTool, including DMP versioning and advancing our API to facilitate external integrations. We look forward to sharing updates with you soon about these exciting advancements. In the meantime, as always, feedback or questions are most welcome and can be sent directly to maria.praetzellis@ucop.edu.</p> </div><!-- .entry-content --> <footer class="entry-meta"> <span
