Contracts for services
Funding from the state library, which is a project partner for the managed digital repository being developed.
IT internal budget
RDM services are part of the core work of the libraries, so the funds are the same as for other core liaison, reference,
technical, and other standard operations.
The technology support funding comes from Information Technology Services (ITS), the parent organization of our
Digital Library Technologies unit. Except for this one question we have considered DLT to be a part of the Library when
answering all other questions because they largely operate that way.
If your library received external grant funding, please identify the funding agency(ies). N=6
Alfred P. Sloan Foundation (DMPTool2), National Science Foundation (Engineering Genome Project)
