Roles and responsibilitiesThe Data Management
Plan should outline the rights and obligations of all
parties with respect to their roles and
responsibilities in the management and retention
of research data. It should also consider changes to
roles and responsibilities that will occur should a
project director or co-project director leave the
institution or project.

Expected dataThe Data Management Plan should
describe the types of data, samples, physical
collections, software, curriculum materials, and
other materials to be produced in the course of the
project. It should then describe the expected types
of data to be retained.

Period of data retentionNEH is committed to
timely and rapid data distribution. However, it
recognizes that types of data can vary widely and
that acceptable norms also vary by discipline. It is
strongly committed, however, to the underlying
principle of timely access. In their DMP applicants
should address how timely access will be assured.
