As part of an award from the Future of Research Communications and e-Scholarship (Force11)
community organization, the Oregon Health & Science University Library implemented an outreach
effort with the local research community. The three-pronged approach consisted of a data management
open house, one-on-one consultations with researchers, and an interactive data wrangling session. Here
we describe our efforts to understand our community’s research data management needs and how the
outcomes are influencing the Library’s efforts to provide research data management related services.
