The NIH recently released a format update to its Data Management and Sharing Plan<https://grants.nih.gov/policy-and-compliance/policy-topics/sharing-policies/dms/writing-dms-plan> that is required for plans submitted after May 25, 2026 (see NOT-OD-26-046<https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-26-046.html> for details). As in 2023, a group of data librarians collaborated to create implementation resources for researchers, librarians, and other research support professionals. We hope that these resources will help you as you work to address this change. You can download the materials and see any updated releases at our OSF project page<https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/D8KZU>. The resources include: * Annotated Example Plan<https://osf.io/d8kzu/wiki?wiki=z4xdj> * Mapping the 2023 Plan to 2026 Update<https://osf.io/d8kzu/wiki?wiki=6u9h8> * Guidance on Repository Selection<https://osf.io/d8kzu/wiki?wiki=69h7w> * Materials for Librarians<https://osf.io/d8kzu/wiki?wiki=kmv36>, including a powerpoint slide deck, checklist to give to your researchers, and list of updated LibGuides See the OSF wiki pages for detailed descriptions of our outputs, as well as citation information. We hope that you will spread the word and use these resources at your institution and in your LibGuides. Please feel free to remix these documents to suit your needs with credit to our group. \Sincerely, NIH DMSP Guidance Working GroupReceived on Thu May 21 2026 - 21:55:40 EDT
