Writing your NSF Data Management and Sharing Plan (+ new Research.gov tool)

Applying for NSF funding? Join Tisch Library for a Zoom workshop on NSF Data Management and Sharing Plans, including recent changes to NSF data sharing policies.

All NSF proposals must include a Data Management and Sharing Plan (DMSP), outlining how your research data will be managed, shared, and preserved. On April 27, 2026, the NSF will be implementing a new webform for DMSPs which should be used by all plans submitted after that date.

We see nations looking inwards to ameliorate their economic woes rather than relying on the forces of globalization to achieve the most efficient outcomes.

A special delivery arrived this semester from the Dean’s office: a cart of books by Fletcher faculty and alums, most with handwritten dedications from their authors to Dean Stavridis or his predecessor, Dean Stephen Bosworth. The books have been put on display outside the reference and technology offices in the library’s main reading room.
