>
> Libraries and archives around the world are applying the principles of 
> library and archival sciences to address challenges and provide new 
> services related to research data management. Librarians are helping 
> researchers address needs throughout the research data lifecycle, for 
> example, by conducting assessment and outreach, consulting on data 
> management plans and metadata, incorporating data into information 
> literacy instruction and collection management, and providing data 
> publication and preservation services.
>
> IFLA Journal invites papers for a special issue focused on research 
> data services and libraries across all continents. The issue will be 
> published in October 2016 as Volume 42:3. In particular, the main goal 
> of the special issue is to gather the latest theory, research, and 
> state-of-the-art practices from libraries that are informing and 
> innovating effective data services.
