Using DMPTool to Create a Data Management Plan

Many funding agencies such as NSF, NIH, NEH, DOE, IMLS and others require that funding proposals include a data management plan (DMP). We recommend using the California Digital Library's DMPTool to create your plan.​

Sample Plans:

• ICPSR: Sample Data Management Plan for Social and Political Science Data
• NEH-ODH: Planning 3: Managing and Sustaining the Project Assets
• NIH: Examples of Data-Sharing Plans
• NSF: Dissemination and Sharing of Research Results - NSF Data Management Plan Requirements
• NSF: Example Data Management Plans for several different NSF Directorates by researchers from UC San Diego
• RIO: Example Data Management Plans (Research Ideas and Outcomes) Journal Collection of exemplary DMPs
