Participation in a large-scale study to evaluate agricultural research support services
No full textPoster presentation for 2016 Minnesota Library Association annual conferenceDuring the spring and summer of 2016, we participated in Ithaka S+R’s Research Support Services program, which “is designed to help libraries re-imagine their services for scholars on a discipline-by-discipline basis.” Ithaka S+R is a not-for-profit organization that partners with academic libraries to help them gather evidence, via surveys and other research methods, to improve library services and strategic planning.
Ithaka S+R is currently doing a series of studies to determine researcher support needs in various disciplines, such as religious studies, chemistry, and public health. We participated in their agricultural study, which aimed to learn about agricultural researchers’ research focus, research methods and publishing practices. The data that we collected will be collated with 18 other institutions and will be published in a large report.
In this poster, we will share our experiences participating in this large-scale research project, through working with Ithaka S+R, interviewing participants, coding qualitative data, and analyzing results. We will also share our preliminary findings on agriculture scholars at the University of Minnesota.Kocher, Megan; Farrell, Shannon. (2016).

Exploring Disciplinary Differences in Data Management Practices
Full text linkOur poster will compare and contrast the differences in requirements and practice of data management plans in the broad disciplinary fields of life sciences and health sciences. We will discuss the similarities and differences in both the researchers’ attitudes and approaches to data management plans, the potential barriers to adoption, and practical strategies for librarians to address these potential needs and obstacles. Further, we will consider differences in the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) data management requirements and how they impact researchers, including faculty members, post-docs, students, and staff.
The libraries at our large, research university are in the process of collecting information about researchers’ data management needs in a variety of disciplines. Further, we are reviewing researchers’ submitted data management plans in order to examine trends and potential opportunities for service development. We are examining the broad differences both between and within disciplines, in order to better equip both researchers and library staff to develop better data management practices. To that end, we are currently developing more robust training for both researchers and library staff in order to address identified areas of need and create a culture shift where data management becomes an integrated part of researchers’ work flow.Bakker, Caitlin J.; Farrell, Shannon; Neeser, Amy.
