Action statement: The Library will support the location, navigation, use, and creation of large data sets in all disciplines. Staff will provide information on issues to consider and methods of creation and storage, and finding and using remote data sets.
Why is this needed? The collection, maintenance, and sharing of raw data is
starting to replace the traditional reductions of sampling and needing to travel to physical locations of research material. Issues of acquisitions, intellectual property, quality assessment, aging, accuracy, and format curation that have been addressed by library and information resources management community traditionally, are critical in this emergence of resource availability. Thus the Library is uniquely and strongly positioned to guide the UT Arlington community in ethical, cost-efficient, long-term, and strategic uses of externally and internally hosted data sets.
Stakeholders:1. Information Services, SEL and AFA libraries will identify needs and
opportunities for this service and deliver information to end users about data sets in general, information management (not legal) advice, and assist patrons in locating, accessing and using data sets. Information Resources will identify (in conjunction with Information Services and the branch libraries) available data sets, recommend resources, and procure data sets with existing serial and monograph funds.

Selection (and retention)
• What serves the researchers
• What serves the University
• What is required for compliance
• Preservation planning
• (just anticipation—whole section on preservation policies &
