Research Data Management and Sharing Support from CMU Libraries

CMU Libraries provides research data services, some of which are directly relevant to proposal preparation.  These include resources and guidance for data management and sharing, including data management plans (DMPs), and open access publishing.

The Libraries also offers a DMP review service. To get access to this service you can submit a Data Management Plan draft via the "request feedback" option included in the DMPTool platform or by scheduling a consultation with our Research Data Services (RDS) team via Libraries website/Email and we will get back to you with feedback for your DMP

Please contact the University Libraries Data and Publishing Services team with any questions or to set up a consultation.

DMPtool

The Libraries can support data management and sharing plans through consultations and DMPtool.  DMPtool is an online resource for creating data management plans that meet specific funding agency requirements and promote your research. DMPtool allows researchers to specify their funder and provides guidance from the funder, DMPtool, and CMU for each required section, as well as examples.

KiltHub

The KiltHub Repository is the comprehensive institutional repository and research collaboration platform for research data and scholarly outputs produced by members of Carnegie Mellon University and their collaborators. 

Users can make all of the products of their research openly available and citable with CMU’s institutional repository. KiltHub meets most funding agency requirements for sharing data in an open, stable data repository. Example KiltHub language that can be used in a DMP can be found in DMPtool and on the Research Data Library Guide.
