Research Data Access and Preservation Summit, 2016 Atlanta, GA May 4-7, 2016 Outline for Panel 5, "DMPs and Public Access: Agency and Data Service Experiences" Panel Lead: Margaret Henderson, Virginia Commonwealth University

1. Panel5: DMPs and Public Access:Agency and Data Service experiences.
Moderator: Margaret Henderson with Cynthia Hudson-Vitale and Natsuko Nichols
Abstract:
This panel brings a group of experts in data management to share their own experience with Data
Management Plan (DMP) reviewing, assisting to write a DMP,consulting to revise returned DMPs,post-
award monitoring of approved plans, and plans for complying with data public access policies. Library
services have quickly developed in support of funding agency requirements for data management, and yet
little interaction between funding agencies, proposal reviewers,faculty, and librarians has taken place on
a community level. To address this gap, this panel will provide a variety of DMP perspectives - from
funder’s to data service librarians. RDAP attendees will be encouraged to engage in the discussion with
panelists to explore the current state and emerging role of DMP reviewing process and consulting
services.
Panelists:
Laura J. Biven, PhD, Senior Science and Technology Advisor, Office of the Deputy Director for Science
Programs, Office of Science, US Department of Energy, attendance via Skype
Laura Biven serves as Senior Science and Technology Advisor in the Office of Science at the Department
of Energy. Her responsibilities include advising the Deputy Director on science program management
and policy issues, and providing coordination and analysis of budget, scientific, technical, programmatic,
and operational issues regarding the SC Program Offices and national laboratories. Laura serves as point
of contact for issues related to research data policy. From 2005 to 2008 she was AAAS Science and
Technology Policy Fellow, serving first as Commodity Import Analyst at the US Department of
Agriculture and then as Science and Technology Analyst at the US Department of State. She has also
served as member of the mathematics faculty at Bard High School Early College in New York City;
postdoctoral fellow at the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Complex Physics in Dresden, Germany;
and visiting scientist to the Abdus Salam International Center for Theoretical Physics in Trieste, Italy. She
received a first class M.Sci. degree in Mathematics and Physics from the University of Bristol and a Ph.D.
in Applied Mathematics from the University of Warwick, both in the UK. Laura has received a number of
awards for teaching and the public dissemination of science including three AAAS/Subaru Lesson
Writing contests and first prize in an essay competition organized by the International Congress on
Mathematical Physics 2000 for the essay: “Weak-Wave Turbulence: A Tragic Super-hero of Turbulence
Theory.” Laura will provide funding agency perspectives on the DMP requirements of the Department of
Energy, Office of Science.
Andi Ogier, Associate Director, Data Services,Virginia Tech
Andi Ogier is the Associate Director in the University Libraries at Virginia Tech, where she leads the
Data Services Unit and serves as the PI for VTArtWorks,an IMLS-funded community arts initiative. At
work she spends most of her days in meetings and trying to figure out how to have fewer meetings. In her
spare time she chases after a two-year-old and a dog.

2. Andi will be going over the state of DMP Consulting at Virginia Tech, and then looking at some
responses from federalagencies that were returned to the researcher along with requests for DMP
revisions. I'm still trying to track down the number of revision requests received by researchers at VT --
OSP is playing hard to get. :)
Jonathan Petters,PhD,Data Consultant, Johns Hopkins University
Jonathan Petters is a Data Management Consultat in Johns Hopkins Data Management Services. Prior to
joining the Data Management Services group, Jon was a AAAS Science and Technology Policy Fellow in
the Department of Energy’s Office of Science where he investigated data management policies and needs
within the physical sciences. He received a PhD. in Meteorology from the Pennsylvania State University
and has researched aerosol-cloud-radiation interactions in various cloud systems. He continues to increase
his weather control powers but can only take credit for beautiful and fair weather days at this time.
Jon will talk about his experiences with the data management planning consulting service at Johns
Hopkins, what research data services personnel can do to improve research data management planning
and ways they might help with potential funder research data initiatives.
Anne Maglia, Program Officer,Science Advisor for BIO Centers,Division of Biological Infrastructure,
NSF (via Skype)
Anne Maglia (“Mag-lee-ah”) is a Science Advisor in the Division of Biological Infrastructure at the
National Science Foundation. Her current job is to oversee the management of BIO’s portfolio of large
investments in Centers and Cooperative Agreements. She has been at NSF for 6 years,and previously
managed BIO’s programs in biological informatics and collections digitization. Her parents and extended
family continue to call her Banana,and thus, are no longer allowed to call her office.
Topics covered:
- NSF’s data management and access policy
- Program director’s perspective on developing strong data management plans to accompany NSF
proposals
Lisa Federer,Research Data Informationist, NIH Library
Lisa Federer is the Research Data Informationist at the NIH Library, where she leads the Data Services
Team and provides a variety of data-related services for the intramural research community at the
National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, MD. She is also the editor of the forthcoming Medical Library
Association Guide to Data Management for Librarians. When she’s not talking incessantly about data,
she can be found talking incessantly about her dog, Ophelia. Lisa’s presentation will provide an overview
of NIH policies, current and proposed, including an update on the NIH response to the 2013 OSTP memo
regarding public access to federally funded research.
