Abstract: As national government agencies continue to mandate specific data management requirements and the need for research data management (RDM) grows, many libraries are developing RDM services to help with the research mission of their institution. Research libraries' mission and expertise have always included a variety of research services. What can the library's role be in RDM services? This paper describes the possible roles that libraries and librarians can play throughout the data lifecycle. The Princeton University Library is presented as a case study to demonstrate these roles and the development of RDM services including advocacy, awareness, education, advisory services, data management plan development, and data repository development and promotion. In addition, this paper also discusses the challenges and opportunities associated with RDM services development in libraries and the future plans at Princeton, including the development of a RDM mini course for graduate students and a robust RDM program.
