Funding agencies such as National Science Foundation and National Institutes of Health are increasingly requiring data management plans DMPs in grant proposals. In response to these funding agency mandates, academic libraries are increasingly providing data management services to university 133s. A better understanding of the impact of DMPs on grant awards and grant-funded research will enhance library data services for academic 133s, promote data stewardship and data sharing, and could potentially increase 133s' competitiveness for grant awards.

Major funding agencies have stipulated that data from funded research should be made available for retrieval and secondary analysis. Many journals are following suit, requiring authors to share supporting data. 133s have reservations about sharing their data however, expressing concerns about the cost involved to make the data available, maintaining patient's privacy, overcoming commercial contract restrictions, and/or fears of proper attribution, wrongful use, or competition.
