Medical libraries’ strategies in research data management: analysis and implications
Abstract
This article discusses the involvement of Polish medical libraries in the field of research data management (RDM). It provides an overview of RDM’s development and its introduction in medical libraries. On the basis of a survey conducted among the staff of Polish medical libraries, the authors outline the librarians’ level of competence, the extent of services they provide and the organisational context of their work. It is stressed that it is crucial to further develop librarians’ qualifications related to RDM, as well as to increase the awareness of libraries’ role in this area among researchers. The authors present conclusions concerning the formal acknowledgement of librarians’ role in the process of RDM, which contributes to the development of both libraries and research institutions.
