University of North Texas’ Compliance with Funder-Mandated Public Access to Research Data: Project Development and Progress Report

In 2021, the University of North Texas (UNT) established a collaboration between the UNT Libraries and the Division of Research and Innovation to provide stable, long-term access to information about federally-funded grant projects received at UNT through a centralized location for accessing research and grant artifacts including documentation and datasets. This collaboration made use of existing infrastructure from both departments to host data management plans for each of the grant projects and ensure compliance from all researchers with active grants. This presentation will highlight the development of the current workflow and report on the status of the project.
