Roadmap zur Servicestelle für Forschungsdatenmanagement am Beispiel der Universitätsbibliothek Duisburg-Essen.

The establishment of a central service point for research data management (RDM) at a university is a long-time process that can be divided into five phases: initiation, foundation, development, roll-out and stabilisation. This roadmap guides the reader through the individual phases and highlights challenges and implementation steps based on experience gained at the University Library of Duisburg-Essen. The essential parts of the concept for the service point „Research Data Services" (RDS) at the University Library of Duisburg-Essen are the developed service portfolio, which covers the various fields of action of the RDM, as well as the organisational structure, which includes all relevant actors within and outside the university. The entanglement of subject-specific science and RDM is an important condition for the success of the establishment of services. At the University of Duisburg-Essen University this is achieved in particular through close cooperation with research networks. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
