Abstract

The goal of the DMPTool, originally released in 2011, is to provide researchers with guidance, links to resources and help with writing data management plans. Thanks to a grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, several organizations have been able to develop the DMPTool 2 which adds significant new features and functionality and is scheduled to be released in May 2014. Within the DMPTool, researchers create plans by selecting their desired funding agency and following along in an online wizard. Institutions can add significant value to the process through customization of the tool with institutional specific help. Along with institutional branding in the interface, they can provide links to resources, such as to repositories, consultation services, or news and event items. Institutions can review plans on request of the users or can require such reviews. In addition, institutions will be able to create templates for institution specific data management plans (for internal grants, for example). This poster will highlight the features and functionality of the new DMPTool, and will solicit feedback on what the focus should be for the next phase of the tool.
