National Coordination Point for Research Data Management (LCRDM) Positioning paper for 2019 and beyond

English translation of positioning paper LCRDM Zenodo: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3266833 The Positioning Paper 2019 and beyond describes the scope of the LCRDM, based on a thematic classification and three broader (policy based) working areas. What LCRDM task groups are working on, are parts of a greater RDM puzzle that stem from every day practice in Dutch research institutions. At the same time, the cooperation within the LCRDM task groups places the work of research institutions within national parameters. This enhances verification, coherence and recognition. Since 2018, the LCRDM works with a pool of experts. The pool now has grown to more than 190 participants from 60 Dutch research institutes. Seven Task Groups are currently working on various aspects of RDM. And the first results are getting available (www.lcrdm.nl).
